Motherhood is raw and challenging and, often, very short of the perfect Pinterest world shown on social media.

Dear Jesus, Send Coffee: Finding Joy in the Chaos of Early Motherhood offers companionship to any mother one chicken nugget away from a good cry.

Author, and mother of two, Meredith Redmon weaves together a collection of funny truths, explorations of reality versus expectation, and interviews with real mothers and experts about the beautiful and trying time that is early motherhood. You'll learn from experts like Alexandra Sacks and Brené Brown about topics such as matrescence while also exploring sleep methods, feedings, and postpartum bodies. While the topics seem heavy, Redmon successfully uses humor to keep you laughing throughout the book.

Dear Jesus, Send Coffee speaks to new parents as well as seasoned mothers who want to cut through the noise and pressures of perfection and, instead, just be the moms they were created to be.
