I am so thrilled to recommend a most heart warming and timely book called Chelsea’s Tree by Marcy McCann. This is a delightful book that I really appreciate and can’t wait to share with all my “collected” grandchildren. When my husband and I married, we blended adult children and their children of various relationships and marriages. This powerful way of explaining the various pieces of the family puzzle is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!! Kudos to Marcy McCann for being so creative!!
