| Publisher Description: The birth of a baby brings about marvelous experiences and relationships. But it is an adjustment for mothers, for fathers, for brothers and sisters; and being born is a tremendous shock to the baby. Your Baby Is For Loving will help all family members prepare for the new arrival. MaryJane Pierce Norton invites us to consider parenting as a partnership. We partner with our spouses, other family members, our faith community, and most importantly, with God, as we raise our children as people of faith. Your Baby Is For Loving not only helps families prepare for the birth but also offers practical suggestions and spiritual guidance for the days, weeks, and months that follow. |
