Us Mums dont get told often enough what amazing beings we are to juggle so many balls in any one given day and to keep the country's households running!!
So I thought I would! Us SAHMs are brilliant,you Mums who work full/part time are great and you single and special needs Mums are fanatstic!
We should all take a couple of minutes to congratulate ourselves on the complexity of our lives and how well we cope,how we make our children happy,our husbands/partners and what bloody good friends we are to each other!

TBH, I think you are right. Despite all the steps taken forward over the last few centuries, I think they have far from made our lives easier - in fact it's much, much harder nowadays to be a Mummy I'd say.

So hear, hear - we are all amazing.

All together now
"Give yourself a pat on the back...a pat on the back... a pat on the back..."

Now if only we find a way to deal with snooty people in the community who snarl at anyone with the audacity to take a child outside their house and then for the said child to make a noise

I sooo agree - all mums are top - whatever the choices as an individual you make - you probably have done the best thing in the world - that is loving and doing your best for all the ds's/dd's out there.

On a sunny day - I am sooo enjoying my maternity leave!
