Family Sqeeze by Phil Callaway

Introducing...
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Described as “Dave Barry with a message,” author, speaker, and television host Phil Callaway has written twenty books, many of them bestsellers and is a popular speaker at conferences, camps and marriage retreats, coaxing laughter and tears from audiences worldwide. Of his personal accomplishments he rates the following highest: shutting off the TV to listen to his children’s questions (twice), taking out the garbage without being told (once), and convincing his high school sweetheart Ramona to marry him (once).
ABOUT THE BOOK:
You’re in the “Middle Ages”–sandwiched between the “greatest generation” and the “gimme” generations, busily juggling both with no relief in sight. Children are driving, and parents are not. Money is tight and so are your favorite jeans. And things that never ached before are beginning to give you trouble! For every baby boomer who wonders if it’s possible to navigate the Middle Ages with grace and style, Phil Callaway offers plenty of hope and a little hilarity, too. Because there’s nothing like a smile to make wrinkles less noticeable.
MY TAKE ON THE BOOK:
This was my first introduction to this author, and it was a great first impression! In one paragraph, you will find yourself laughing and crying in short order. A fantastic heart-felt peek into his life that we can all relate to. If you are feeling stuck between your kids and parents - and really feeling the SQUEEZE, get this book! You'll feel like someone understands you and you might even pick up some advice that will help you along the way.
