Sy, die Meeue en die Heilige Gees

The story revolves mainly around Ingrid—a mother who can make just about anything work. And if something doesn’t work, she tries harder. Or gives it a tug. Or starts over. But being the single mother of the prickly six-year-old Zoey is the one thing she just can’t get a handle on. And Ingrid loves Zoey. Loves her dearly. It’s just that the hardships of motherhood sometimes weigh heavier than the joys.
