Being a single mom with a toddler is not easy. Work 40+ hours and study 15+ hours a week, clean the house, wash the dishes, sort out the bills, ... and the list goes on. Really? Do I want a medal? No, not really. I don't want a medal at all. In fact, I don't want this life. I want more time, less work; quality time with those I care about. Until that happens - I thought - I need some help to make the most of the little time I spend with my son.I got this book two days ago and I must admit it was a big wake up call. My little pumpkin is the MOST important thing in the world right now and I can't believe how messed up our priorities can end up sometimes, particularly at times when things are hard, we are stressed out and extremely busy.Derek's book has not only been a wake up call for me, but it has given me the advice I really needed at this time in my life. Brilliant little ideas and suggestions that hit home and made me change my attitude and outlook on many things. I want to enjoy the little time I have with my son as much as possible, before it is too late.I recommend this book to all dads and moms - compulsory read!!
