Love to Live by: Things I Would Want My Children to Know (Paperback) by Karen Mann Nelson

This is an "Incredible Journey" book. It takes you into the mind and heart of a woman who was blessed with the chance to raise ten children in her, now, forty-two-year marriage. To capture all she was learning "along the way," she would write down "Mom's Philosophies of Life" onto little scraps of paper and shove them into her pockets. At night, she would take them out and write short essays about the things that brought her joy, suffering, beyond imaginable "crazy," heartache, happiness, wonder, dancing, answers, healing, voices, magic, laughter, light, and miracles. These paper messages have now become a tool box; a treasure box called LOVE TO LIVE BY. They are now not only available as "things I would want my children to know." They are available to all who care to embark on a journey that could be a life changer.
