A Simpler Motherhood was a great read. It is a realistic approach to minimalism. She recognizes that a simpler life looks different for everyone, and that organizing can mean pretty matching baskets or getting rid of stuff or just having some semblance of sanity! The book also helps readers shift the mindset, doing a sort of mental decluttering as well, all with the idea of finding more joy in parenting. I really enjoyed this book. There were some things that I've already incorporated in our daily life, and others are things I strive to do. I also really appreciated the tone of the book - it felt familiar, like I was hearing advice from a mom friend.”
