So sweet and encouraging.

This book is a "take along" when you have an appointment and you must wait, when you're standing in line at the post office, or when you're in the car pick-up line for your first grader. Filled with over 100 gentle short stories, anecdotes, poems, and quotations, the reader will find something to cheer and encourage in the sometimes frustrating moments of waiting--and that might include those times when you can't fall asleep.

Alice Gray does indeed provide nourishment for the heart and soul.

I bought this book when I was a Christian teenager and I enjoyed it much as I enjoyed ‘chicken soup for a teenage soul’. It’s heart warming and mushy and cozy. I’m now a Muslim, so some of the Christian element is uncomfortable, but I still hold on to this book because it gives me that “feel good” feeling. If you’re a fan of ‘chicken soup’ type books and inspirational religious books, you’ll enjoy this.

Some of the stories are barely a page long. A number of humorous tales. A number of Christian themed tales. Generally uplifting.

Only read the Robin Jones Gunn pieces, "The Wish Beneath My Pillow" and "The Father's Pleasure." As usual, got a glimpse of the Father from her words and her heart.

This is a beautiful book of stories and poems to celebrate life and family. These are stories that can be read aloud or bookmarked to reread later.

I loved this book.
