Written from the quieter side of motherhood, this collection doesn't romanticize the journey. Instead, it sits honestly with the exhaustion, the fierce love, the creeping fear, and the strange grief of watching a child grow up one ordinary Tuesday at a time.From the disorienting math of new parenthood in Doing Math, to the bittersweet acceleration of childhood in Fast and Slow, to the aching acceptance of letting go in Build World for You and Caught Up - these poems capture what it feels like to love someone so much it rearranges your fear, your body, and your sense of self.Whether you're a new mother in the fog of sleepless nights, a parent watching your child inch toward independence, or someone looking for a heartfelt gift for a mom in your life, this collection offers something rare: permission to feel it all - the tenderness and the frustration, the pride and the grief - without needing to resolve any of it.Perfect for: New and expecting mothers navigating the emotional weight of early parenthoodMoms of teens and young adults learning to loosen the gripMother's Day, baby shower, or push-present giftsPoetry lovers who appreciate raw, emotionally honest free verseAnyone processing the identity shift that comes with becoming a parentInside you'll find poems on: the fear that arrives with love, losing and rediscovering yourself in motherhood, the passage of time, letting your child go, and the quiet, unremarkable moments that turn out to be the whole point.The smallest hands change us in the biggest ways.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/345/9798193455301_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "11.99", "online_price" : "11.99", "our_price" : "11.99", "club_price" : "11.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
