Hi cink,

I am confident the book you are looking for is "Trees Make the Best
Mobiles" by Jessica Teich and Brandel France de Bravo.


"People Magazine (May 17th issue) 
?What passion do new parents Debra Messing, Matt LeBlanc and Brooke
Shields share with moms-to-be Gwyneth Paltrow and Courtney Cox? All
are fans of Trees Make the Best Mobiles...?It?s a book for new
parents, but really it?s for anyone who wants to slow down and enjoy
life more,? says Paltrow."

"Trees Make the Best Mobiles"
Book Description
"...Now, Jessica Teich and Brandel France de Bravo help new parents-
who barely have time to return a phone call or wash a sock- learn to
do less, listen more, and spend focused, fruitful time with their
children. Practical and fun to read, Trees Make the Best Mobiles urges
parents to treat every task-even diapering and feeding-as a chance to
connect with their child, and gives calming advice about hot-button
issues from pacifier use to temper tantrums. Parents will be relieved
to discover that they don't have to buy lots of stuff-a tree outside a
baby's window can serve as a mobile-or shuttle kids from one activity
to another. In fact, in today's hectic, high-speed world, children
need less "stimulation" and more unhurried interaction with the people
who matter most. The authors call their approach "present parenting,"
because they believe being "present in the moment," without resentment
or distraction, is the greatest present any parent can give."
