Remembering and celebrating the gifts of a mother's life is a timeless journey we all need to take.
Just as a mother's job is never done, a mother's gifts never end. Remembering and celebrating mom's gifts of love, life lessons and legacy of values is a joyful step in the mother-daughter relationship that reminds us what really matters in life.
In today's busy world, it's easy to delay the journey until you lose your mom, and you need healing. Dear Mom gently guides readers through the journey of remembering, celebrating and healing with a series of letters Dee Dee Raap wrote nine years after her mother's sudden death.
Dee Dee's heartfelt writing explores the character and life lessons of an ordinary woman whose values clarify what really matters in today's world.
You'll laugh and you'll cry as Dee Dee shares her mom's invaluable, timeless lessons on quality: if something was worth doing, it was worth doing well. On sharing: you could cut the brownie in two, but your sister got first choice of pieces. And on humor: why else would a prairie farm yard be home to a flock of plastic pink flamingos?
Losing a mom is one of the hardest things you'll ever face. The journey of remembering and celebrating is one of the most important you'll ever take.
Dee Dee Raap's beautifully written book, Dear Mom: Remembering, Celebrating, Healing, is a journey every daughter and mother can relate to.
Dear Mom makes a great gift for your mother, daughters, grandmother, aunts, nieces or yourself!
"Reading Dear Mom was like getting a hug from my late mom."
"I just need to tell you that it is a wonderful book, I am so happy that I bought it. My heart is broken with the death of my mother and yet I had much more time with her than you did with your mom. Things that you hold dear to your heart brought up special memories of my own about my Grandmother & Mom. I am going to take your suggestion and start writing my memories down."
"It's been five Christmases without my Mom. And it's still the first all over again. I will write the letter, I hope it helps. But there were so many things left unsaid. Thanks for your supportive 'Life without mom Ministry.'"
