Serving The Hearts Of Mothers
A truth all moms know all too well: Children cry. From temper tantrums to emotional outbursts, parents are bound to experience their kid’s tears and wonder how to respond when the waterworks start (and what to do to make it stop.) This week, Karen addresses how to get your child to stop crying.
Being a mom changes your life's priorities. While your little ones bring you more joy and love than you have ever imagined, they also bring a big set of needs that have you focusing on them, and not on yourself.

Karen has invited her sister, Ricki, to join the conversation and they talk about everything from grieving a miscarriage, how to support and love on your friends in that season, infertility and even losing a child after they've been born.
