I have two daughters and I have done everything in my power to prevent them from assimilating, even being aware of, my idiocy about my weight. – Ayelet Waldman

Im sure there are people who survive tragedy without humor, but Ive never met any of them. Nor would I be particularly interested in writing about them if I did meet them. – Ayelet Waldman
By presenting a faithful and honest record of my experience as a mother, I hope to show both my readers and my children how truth can redeem even what you fear might be the gravest of sins. – Ayelet Waldman
