WOW. This devotional exceeded my expectations and blew me away. I feel like it's both a devotional and a baby memory book all wrapped into one. I so wish I had this when my firstborn was a baby.

This devotional is SO encouraging and it SO different than other motherhood devos out there. This actually starts at their 1st birthday as they are growing from baby to official toddler. It goes week-by-week through the second year of their life. Each month has a specific theme that ties in with your toddler's development, as well as your own as a mother. It all brings it back to Scripture and your own spiritual growth as your child grows. It truly helps you to slow down and savor each moment for what it really is.

At the end of each week, there are two prompts to fill out: a memory from that week and also a question that is geared toward your spiritual growth. This is what makes it so special! You get to see your growth each week along with your child. Aaah, I truly wish I had this when I was a new mom.

This is now what I'll be gifting moms at their child's 1st birthday party. What a truly wonderful, life-giving devotional/memory book to treasure. Order it for any new moms you know! This is the PERFECT gift for them.

This is such a beautiful and, just as importantly, a useful book for parents of toddlers. Each devotion includes a verse, information about toddler development, the devotion itself, and some reflection questions. While reading this, I felt so seen about what is going on in our home this season of life. This is a book to be savored, and one I will begin gifting to my fellow mom-of-toddler friends.

Thank you NetGalley and Thomas Nelson for this advanced copy. All opinions are my own.

I absolutely cherished this book! If you have friends with toddlers, gift them this devotional journal. Claire does such a wonderful job of helping moms recieve Gods peace and grace in the years of intense toddlers. I so needed this breath of fresh air and reminder during some very sweet, but tough times as a mom with a testing toddler. The scriptures and reminders of Gods plan were beautiful. Highly recommend this book! Thank you @netgalley catherineclairelarson @thomasnelson for Themis advance copy. It comes out July 8 💖

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC! If you are looking for a perfect gift for a new mom look no further! This is so phenomenal! I love how it gives insite into the development a toddler is going through. My favorite thing is that it has you journal where your little one is on the development scale every week! Such a great way to remember these precious details that moms would naturally forget.
