Tales from the Crib

Why is Lucy Klein cuddling her adorable son while her sort-of husband cuddles his adorable...girlfriend? Well, it may take two to make a baby, but it only takes one to ask for a divorce--"and her husband Jack was the one who asked--"ten minutes before she announced her pregnancy. So why did she agree to his proposal that they raise the baby together and stay married in name only, free to see other people while still providing a stable home for their child? She could blame any number of things, including hormones, panic, and the prospect of moving back in with her complete diva of a mother. In any case, despite the totally bizarre arrangement, it may not be the weirdest thing that happens in her life this year. Between trying to maintain her city-girl attitude while languishing in New Jersey, surviving children's parties featuring Barney and bloodshed, and trying to get at least one date (just to prove that she can), Lucy's hands are pretty full. But if there's one thing she's determined to learn from all of this, it's how to be a great mom without losing herself in the process...Coburn, Jennifer is the author of 'Tales from the Crib', published 2008 under ISBN 9780758209832 and ISBN 0758209835.
