So, you wanted to be a Mommy. Now that you're there, is it all you expected? Author Rachel Jankovic, a mother of six, reminds listeners that motherhood is largely sacrificial, a daily laying down of your life that mysteriously fills you the more you give out. Rachel talks about her own leap into motherhood early in her marriage and the challenges and blessings motherhood ushers in.
