“Filled with grace, hope, and practical ways forward for every momma.” — Candace Cameron Bure, actress and New York Times bestselling author
Most days motherhood often looks like bottomless piles of laundry; a sink full of dishes; sleepless nights; and unshowered, nonstop, endless days. If that’s all there is, then no wonder “Grumpy Mom” sometimes sneaks into your heart and home.
If you can relate, you’re in good company—Valerie Woerner gets it and has experienced Grumpy Mom more often than she’d care to admit. In Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday, Valerie shares what she’s learned so far about sending Grumpy Mom packing and embracing a joyful, intentional motherhood that is so much better than you thought possible.
As you journey with Valerie, you’ll be inspired and equipped to find energy in the most unlikely places, pursue your own dreams, be set free from mom guilt, feel content despite unfinished to-do lists, spend purposeful time with God amid the daily chaos, and discover more joyous moments of motherhood.
So, take a holiday from Grumpy Mom, and enjoy life as the mom God made you to be.

Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday Say Goodbye to Stressed Tired and Anxious and Say Hello to Renewed Joy in Motherhood edition by Valerie Woerner Jennifer Dukes Lee Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
- This is truly the most countercultural, refreshing, and surprising book on motherhood I’ve ever read. Not usually a fan of “these kind of books,†I was floored and humbled by the practicality, the simplicity, and the authenticity of Val’s perspective. The greatest takeaway from this book for me is the view that I don’t have to approach motherhood with the conclusion of “this is as good as it gets.†Even in the good times, I have bought into this lie, that maybe I just wasn’t good at being a mom, and that my kids would have some good stories to tell later as they hopefully learned from my mistakes.
If you actually feel “at peace†with your motherhood journey and practice, thinking “this is as good as it gets,†you have GOT to read this. Even just the first couple chapters.
Short chapters, minimal cheesiness, practical action steps that are honest and that fit into a real person’s life…that’s all that’s standing between you and a whole new world for you and your kiddos. It really is out there. - There’s no doubt that motherhood is a struggle, but sometimes our attitudes, perspectives, and reactions make the struggle worse. Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday turns our defaults on their head and shows us a better way to live and parent, a way you won’t find by scrolling online or reading funny memes. This book is a call to dig deeper, to get to the root of the battles you face and send grumpy mom packing.
If you’re tired of negativity, guilt, and the constant uphill battle of not being enough or having enough, you’ll be encouraged and refreshed by Val’s mission “To ensure that our kids will remember us as mommas with smiles on our faces—not because we’re fake or phony, but because we’re being continuously renewed by truth.†We are made for more than status quo and cultural norms; even in the mundanity and pressures of motherhood, we can live with abundance and joy - Grumpy Mom Takes A Holiday is a truly inspired book! I am just a year or two behind Valerie in my motherhood journey and I took away so much light and truth on how to be the best and most Godly mother I can be to my children no matter my struggles. Valerie is in the trenches with us young moms and shares her heart in a vulnerable and encouraging way to inspire all mothers to take steps toward having more peace, contentment and fulfillment in motherhood by banishing Grumpy Mom. Her advice is actionable, forthright and above all, practical. In the few short weeks since reading this book I have seen such a shift in how I view motherhood and therefore act as a mother to my children. I can't wait to return to it again and again as we all need grace and forgiveness, especially in motherhood.
- I received this book from Tyndale to read in preview to the launch in exchange for an honest review, and I have to admit, I didn't really think I needed it when I saw the title. I had been the grumpy mom, but God was growing me so much. I decided to go ahead and read it for reinforcement and to be able to recommend it to friends, and before I could even finish the introduction, I was shouting "YES! YES! YES!". Valerie has been gifted a beautiful insight and discernment about the lies that our culture tells us as mothers, and she did a beautiful job using scripture to point us back to the joy-filled version of motherhood that God wants for us. This book is FILLED with rich truth and practical steps that will change your perspective on motherhood radically. I noticed quickly that the things that would typically derail my day and my attitude didn't have such a tight grip on me, and God has truly used this book to draw me, equip me, and comfort me. Goodbye defeated hot-mess mom, and hello purpose-filled and joyful mama who can laugh without fear of the future. Ladies, you MUST read this book!
- As a mom of 2, I loved reading this book. Val filled the pages with practical advice on motherhood and loving encouragement to take action against the world's definition of #momlife. You do not have to read this book cover to cover, it is divided into five sections and each section can be read on its own. My favorite parts of the book are the action steps and prayers at the end of each chapter. Do not read this book unless you want to see how motherhood is redeemed by the Gospel!
- While I’ve read some other parenting books, few have made a difference in my day-to-day life like Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday has. Each chapter ends with questions to consider, ways to implement what you just read, and a prayer. The beauty of this book is that the changes are actually small and doable—but they make a big difference as they add up.
I think we all want our kids to remember us as moms who didn’t wish away our years with them but actually enjoyed motherhood. Read this book and start making small changes to make it happen! - I have found this book to be super helpful in helping me to instill more joy in my motherhood. This book is gospel saturated. Through looking at scripture and stories of her own, Valerie helps you apply the truth of the Gospel to your motherhood.
A few of my favorite things about this book
- You don't have to read it all at once; you could read read a chapter at a time over the course of a few years even and it would still be helpful.
- Each chapter ends with action steps, so you aren't left wondering how to start.
-The prayer at the end of each chapter; it gives a quick way to refocus your heart and mind when you feel "grumpy mom" coming. - Valerie’s heart for our perspectives on motherhood to be transformed by the truth of God’s grace is so evident and powerful in this sweet book. My mind has been renewed by the truths she speaks over the popular perspectives on mothering, and I’m very thankful!
