Kathy Vick takes a closer look at Proverbs 31 woman and her various qualities: smart, entrepreneurial, money-savvy, artistic, and compassionate. As Vick empowers females to follow in the footsteps of the Proverbs 31 woman, she reminds readers that the process takes a lifetime. Along the way, Vick’s love for God, family and others is unwavering, and the effect she has on her audience is irresistible and unforgettable.
“Where was this book when I needed it?”
-Cynthia Washington, Book Reviewer
Christian Northwest News, September 2004
“…The past four decades have proved that being a Superwoman is not all it’s cracked up to be. With a healthy dose of humor and wit, author Vick encourages readers with the realization that Proverbs 31 is a process not an instant makeover.”
-Mike Parker, Today’s Christian, May/June 2004
“I found myself cheering the author’s honesty and transparency. In a woman’s life there truly are seasons to be businesswomen, lovers, artists, mothers–and we don’t have to accomplish it all by next Tuesday. This is a great book for the well-meaning overachiever on your list.”

7 Reasons to be Grateful you’re the Mother of a Blended Family
Purchase A Copy
By Kathy Vick
New Leaf Publishing Group
ISBN: 0892216549
$8.99
Written by moms, for moms, the Mom2Mom books are vibrant, inspirational, and often humorous reflections on the most difficult job in the world. Each colorful installment reminds moms that they are not alone in the seasonal challenges of motherhood and encourages them to choose an attitude of gratitude. Becoming a step mom is not for sissies. In this candid book, Kathy Vick, a step mom herself, navigates the gravel roads of “blenders” with laughter and grace, in large doses. The question is not why God chose you, Vick reminds moms, but who you can become in the process.
Small Book, Big Encouragement!
After working with stepmoms (and stepdads) for more than twenty years, we’re always looking for new books to recommend for blended families.
We are glad to recommend this one!
This is a short, easy-reading book — but it is packed with lots of encouragement for women doing the world’s most difficult job: being a stepmom. These pages are a great pick-me-up in mid-afternoon when you’re not sure you’re doing anything right…
Wise advice, strong encouragement, good ideas — you’ll find them here.
A great gift for any stepmom, or buy one for yourself!
