You Make Me Feel Like an Unnatural Woman by Judith NewmanISBN: 1401351891
Publication Date: 2004-04-21
Judith Newman lives a life that I will never live. She lives in New York City, she is married to an older man but doesn't live with him, she has a dog-walker, and a nanny. Oh, and she lives in an apartment, but purchases the one above hers with the hopes of combining the two. Despite our lifestyle differences, her diary was such a great read while I was getting up 3 times a night to feed my little one. She openly shares her fertility journey, her at-times struggling marriage, and her experiences raising twin boys at the age of 41. Her diary is full of wit, honesty, and funny observations of her baby boys. She inspired me to find the humor in sleep-deprived world of living with an infant. She has a constant wonder of her boys, even with they are acting crazy. All mothers could probably use a reminder to live in state of wonder, not only with our children, but with each day.
