Dedicated with love
to all the women
who would rather be a mommy—whether they have the great privilege
of being home with their babies
or work to support them,
and to my own sweet babies
who have grown to be godly young men,
and to their daddy who loves them dearly,
and to the God-Man Jesus,
who loves us all
more than we can possibly comprehend!

Many thanks
to Roger Dean, my dear firstborn son,
whose talent, skill, and diligent labor
brought this coloring book from concept to completion,
and to my dear son Ryan Casey,
who offered many helpful suggestions
that enhanced the finished work.
And, always, thanks to Jesus.
(Apart from Him, we can do nothing.)

When you were a newborn baby...Sample
I hardly got any sleep
because you woke
every few hours,
very hungry,
even in the middle
of the night!
Sample
And sometimes
when I fed you,
you would burp
and spit up on my shoulder.Sample
And sometimes when you pooped,
I'd have to wash your clothes
and give you a bath!
But that's okay, because…
Sample
I love being
your mommy!

from the Lord.”

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Stacy Farrell never expected to be a mommy. She was raised to be a career-minded 90s woman, but the Lord surprised her and her husband, Roger, with their first sweet son in 1997, and their second sweet son in 1999. Those precious babies inspired this little book.
Stacy and her husband homeschooled their sons from the beginning.
She has spoken at a variety of homeschool conferences and has published articles in popular Christian and homeschool magazines. She has also written a number of books, including Celebrating Manhood — A Rite of Passage Guide, The Wise Woman with Literary Analysis Journal Questions, the Mere Christianity Critical Analysis Journal, Creative Freewriting Adventure, Philippians in 28 Weeks, and Philosophy Adventure. (Learn more about those titles at HomeSchoolAdventure.com.)
Although Stacy loves to write, speak, and teach, she considers her greatest work and privilege to be her role as wife to Roger and mother to her sons.
