“If you are like most moms (including me!) you probably feel stress and insecurity facing the challenges of being a mom in the twenty-first century.” ~from the book “Be the Best Mom You Can Be: A Practical Guide to Raising Whole Children in a Broken Generation”
Parenting is difficult. And it is, in many respects, more challenging now than perhaps any generation before this.
Christine Organ grew up in a small town in Wisconsin. She is a double-Badger, having earned both her B.A. and J.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She currently lives in suburban Chicago with her husband, two sons, two dogs, and a lizard. A pragmatic believer and hopeful optimist, Christine writes about faith, love, and the human condition. She writes at www.christineorgan.com and has appeared on Headline News (a division of CNN). Her work has also appeared on The New York Times, Washington Post, Huffington Post, Scary Mommy, Patheos, Mamalode, and RELEVANT.
When the opportunity presented itself to read and review Christine Organ’s “Open Boxes: the gifts of living a full and connected life”, I’ll admit I wasn’t yet familiar with Christine’s work. After proper research, I knew I had to be a part of this book in whatever fashion possible; now that I’ve read it, Christine has gained a new fan.

I had the pleasure to read the recently released book “Heart Sisters” written by Natalie Chambers Snapp. Many of us have sisters and all of us should have friends, but do we have friends who are as dear and close to us as sisters? This book digs deep into the relationships of women and the sister-like friendships that are born in our hearts.
