Having
read several Todd & Christy books, I was super excited when I realized this
book was a continuation of their life together.
Becoming
Us (Haven Makers Book 1) by Robin Jones Gunn is a tale of friendship and
forgiveness. It details not only how Todd & Christy become “us” with a new
life away from his family, but also how Christy and her friends become a tribe.
This
book made me yearn for my own DOE group. I have a tribe, although just four
ladies. We are at that time in our lives, all busy with our own families, where
we don’t have much time for each other. However, these are ladies I could call
in the middle of the night and they would come. These are shoulders on which I
have cried and those that I have supported.
Ladies
need shoulders… a tribe for when we are angry with our husbands, our children
and even ourselves. We need shoulders not only for life’s disappointments but
also to share our triumphs. We need shoulders for dinners, movies, and weekend
getaways.
I
loved the “Welcome to Womanhood” party. I only wish this book came out a few
years ago. The party is so sweet and endearing. Making your girls feel a part
of a tribe rather than dirty, alone, ashamed, or ugly.
Most
importantly, Robin reminds us to always live for your King of Kings!
