I have to admit that I enjoyed this book,  I very much believe that we can spent time away from our kids and have a life beyond them.  I feel that are children will be fine in the end, even though Mom went to book club, or to a movie or on a girls weekend.  I have thought for a while that we are so children centered that we forget we are not just mothers, but wives, sister, friends and so much more.  This book gives so much great advise on how to have more joy, less stress and to do so guilt free.  I rate it 4 stars.
