A Cup of Comfort for Mothers and Daughters

Book excerpt: The mother-daughter relationship retains its power and poignancy throughout a woman’s life. As mothers raise their daughters to womanhood, as daughters care for mothers through midlife and beyond, and as mothers watch daughters become mothers themselves, the changing and growing mother-daughter bond is—and always will be—a cornerstone for every woman. In A Cup of Comfort for Mothers & Daughters—the fourth installment in the unparalleled Cup of Comfort series—mothers and daughters exchange wisdom, advice, and intimate secrets unlike anything you will find in any other story collection. You will laugh and cry out loud as you share in the uplifting stories within these pages, such as: A daughter welcomes her mother back into her life after she has a baby; A young woman sits down for a good cry on her first night at college, and her prescient mother walks in, saying, "You forgot your pillow"; A grown daughter finally learns to value her mother’s gifts for compromise, love, and empathy; A mother finally bridges the generation fashion gap with her daughter on one memorable shopping trip. Whether you are a mother, a daughter, or both, you will want to share A Cup of Comfort for Mothers & Daughters with the women you cherish the most in your life.
