"A heart-warming book filled with funny and touching stories that gently
remind us what life is all about - love, learning and lots of laughter! I laughed out loud MANY times! " "If laughter is the best medicine then Kersten Campbell is a healer of
great skill." "This is a must have book, kept within reach at all times, so when you feel like hanging
your child upside down inside his/her closet for misdeeds of the past 5 minutes, you grab this book instead - lock yourself in the
bathroom -press earplugs deep into the ear canals so children's noises cannot penetrate - and open this book. Within a few minutes
the misdeed will have been forgotten because you will be too busy giggling, chuckling, or outright laughing while thinking to yourself
"I guess it could be worse." "OK, everyone, you simply must run to the closest bookstore and get
Kersten's book--not just for you, but for every LDS mother you know ...I got mine in the mail today and not
only am I LOVING it, but my 13 yr old daughter can't keep her hands off it. She struggles with reading, but
Kersten, your book has her mesmerized. Your Confessions book, Kersten, is now on my top ten list. What
an excellent job." "Kersten Campbell is a comic genius. At the end of a long day, I picked up her book
and within fifteen minutes was laughing from deep in my belly. She has a delightful sense of timing and while reading her book,
you get the feeling you are listening to a stand-up comic. I kept picturing my grandson getting up to all those tricks and decided
I must purchase this for my daughter! It definitely puts motherhood’s most frustrating moments in perspective. I highly
recommend this as a gift for mothers and grandmothers. It would make a great Mother’s Day gift." "Got your book this weekend, there was a few chapters I laughed so hard tears were coming.
My thirteen year old is trying to get his hands on it--guess I will move it to the coffee
table so everyone can enjoy it. I’m so glad my kids aren’t the only ones who make me
question my sanity in this journey called motherhood!!!" "Kersten Campbell, author of "Confessions of a Completely Insane Mother" is a woman after my
own heart. Her book of quick witted essays on motherhood had me laughing until my sides hurt because I could relate to so many of
them!!!" "Warning: do not read this book while drinking milk because the milk will definitely come
shooting out your nose while you laugh at these stories (and who needs another mess to clean up?)" "In classic Seinfeld fashion, Campbell transforms the mundane minutia of life into comical
treasures imbued with warmth and tenderness. This collection of homespun vignettes is packed with positive pro-family, pro-marriage messages
while dismissing the stigma over imperfection. Love matters. Laughter matters.... if Kersten Campbell is insane, sign me up as well, because
family life from her point of view is irresistible!" "I have gotten so much enjoyment out of reading your short
stories that I'm sure so many other people will love them too. I got my sister hooked too, so I know it's
catching!" "Kersten is a new author and her foray into the humorous realms
of motherhood are priceless. There is an absolutely hilarious tale of one of her daughters "flying" that just
had me in stitches just visualizing the situation. Each of her lessons we can all learn from, even us
grandmothers. We all can use a lot of humor in our everyday lives to get through all the stresses of raising
our children. I had the opportunity of finishing this little book of wisdom while waiting to see my Oncologist
yesterday and it was al I could do not to laugh out loud. This is a book to treasure for the insights
Kersten has. I was wondering how she would handle her Primary lesson, but she did with grace. "This story is so sweet AND hilarious! I just love your
writing style!" "This book is highly entertaining and indeed humorous." "I seriously laughed until I cried. I had to tone myself down so that I didn't wake up a sleeping Audrey in the next room! You have a gift for story telling!" "Your stories are so much fun to read. You are an incredibly creative writer! Keep the stories coming!" "I laughed until I cried. The flying incident is the best. I'd never heard of that before! I'm reading this to my kids tonight." "I now have tears in my eyes from enjoying your soccer story. Thanks!!!!!" "It inspired tears of laughter, as usual. I'm just afraid readers are going to have to take your book in small doses, if only for the sake of their own mascara." "This is so hugely funny. Especially the duct tape to the swing part. I laughed so hard my 15 year old asked me what was wrong. So good!!!" "I am laughing so hard my tummy hurts. Great abs work out!...Love it!!!" "I really really love your book.It really cracked me up. I hope the next
book is good like that one.I know that book is intended to be a mother's book, but, you will be thrilled to find
that I think it could also make a big hit amongst the younger ones."
