Once a devout believer in the myth of the perfect mother, author Jennifer Grant now has a more realistic yet still upbeat view of parenting and families. Instead of focusing on creating a conflict-free home, raising picture-perfect kids, and being an ideal mother, Grant offers a wiser and more down-to-earth way to love your children that makes room for mistakes and imperfections. She says, "I share stories about family life and how I've come to appreciate the mess of it. I am grateful for my own happy, idiosyncratic, and imperfect family." 

MOMumental is one mother's account of the unpredictable, creative, sometimes hilarious, and always rewarding process of raising a family. It's filled with funny and poignant stories from her everyday life--a life that mothers everywhere can identify with.

" Wow. Jennifer Grant's MOMumental is amore than a parenting book. It is a love story reminding us that imperfection should be celebrated, not feared." -Kirk Martin, Founder of CelebrateCalm.com and CelebrateADHD.com

"MOMumental's wit and wisdom so enraptured me, I found myself taking notes. Moreover, it elicited such from-the-bottom-of-my-soul laughter that I caused a full-blown scene on the cross-country plane ride where I read it. Fasten your seat belts, folks; you're in for an unforgettable ride." -Cathleen Falsani, Journalist
