As a former educator who dressed professionally at least six days a week, I dreamed of becoming a stay at home mom wearing my shorts and t-shirts or jammies if I choose. I have been living my dream for five years and admit that I have fallen into the cozy trap. I am often found still in my jammies at 11am and sipping coffee. I came to the realization about 6 weeks ago that I've become a frump. I recognized it when one Sunday morning I got dressed for church in my skirt and sweater and said to myself, "So there I am; haven't seen myself in a while." I've made an effort to "dress up" more than just Sundays. Then I began reading Sarah Mae's text.
Frumps to Pumps by Sarah Mae is a delightful motivational series of brief devotions. She has written 20 brief vignettes to encourage stay at home women to "get dressed and stay that way." I can attest that what she has written is true - life happens and if we're not dressed for it, we're not ready. Each devotion is short, easy to understand, and meaningful. There were many instances where I saw myself.
Sarah Mae writes in such a manner that I felt like I was sitting down have coffee together. She uses Scripture and quotes to support her material. I am now motivated even more to be the woman God calls me to be!
I received a complimentary copy Frumps to Pumps for my review. All opinions and thoughts stated are my own.
