There are hundreds of books on parenting, and with good reason - becoming a parent is scary, difficult, and life-changing. But when it comes to books about parenting identity, rather than the nuts and bolts of raising children, nearly all are about what it's like to be a mother.

Fourteen years ago, Mike Milligan learned he would become a grandfather for the first time. He was surprised to find that there was little or no information available on what it means to be a grandfather, how to make the most of the experience, and how to be the best grandfather possible. Sure, there were shelves of books dedicated to grandmothers - all with cuddly covers depicting spring bouquets or gentle little lambs. But there was not a single book that spoke to him, a 64-year-old grandfather-to-be. It struck him that there were countless other grandfathers out there experiencing this same feeling of neglect.

As a single mother, I fully understand the highs and lows of motherhood. I understand the tireless effort, long days, longer nights, trying to make ends meet, and search for support.

I wrote this text for this reason, to let mothers know that what they're feeling isn't unique, it's normal and there's encouragement. A Mother's Love speaks to the myriad of emotions we face, day by day.
