From the Cubicle to the Cradle
New Book Is a Guide for Stay-at-Home Mom Wanna-bes


Watertown, MN –Imagine the aching agony of a mother whose deepest desire is to be with her newborn child but instead of fulfilling that longing, she is forced to work full-time outside the home. Each day at the office is filled with unhappiness as she drops her precious baby off at daycare knowing she will be missing out on the major milestones of her child’s life. But with Carey Keavy’s powerful new book, Raising Your Own Children, this vicious cycle can be ended. This book is formulated to help moms change the course of their lives and the lives of their families by the power of one choice—the choice to sacrifice the gift of time for their children.

Raising Your Own Children is geared towards mothers with a longing to give their full attention and energy to the rearing of their children and create a peaceful home base where the sanctity of marriage can flourish. In these pages, Carey Keavy shoots it straight with a biblical perspective on the roles of mothers in today’s world, laying out an easy-to-follow plan that will allow mothers the freedom to choose their children over full-time employment and learn to live on only one income. She tackles the important issues of discovering God’s purpose for a woman, the importance of children being raised by their own parents, the disease of materialism, working from home, and much, much more.

“Do not let the opportunity to build a meaningful relationship with your children pass you by. This life of ours is not a dress rehearsal,” says Keavy. With no small help from Raising Your Own Children, a brand new life awaits mothers everywhere. About the Author Carey Keavy lives in Watertown, Minnesota with her husband, Jeff, where she homeschools and co-raises her four children. She owns and operates a part-time children’s entertainment business from her home. Carey has a passion to see parents valuing their children and honoring their God-given positions as parents. She has developed and teaches a workshop to help equip moms with the tools needed to transition from work to home.
