My baby turned 16 today. He has taught me a lot. That smiling baby was such a sick little boy for the 1st few years and he is now the healthiest teen I know.

Motherhood is an amazing journey of feelings and experiences, lows and highs.
Im so grateful for it.

For the exhausted mum who hides a few minutes to cry in the bathroom...

For the mum hidden in the bathroom, because she needs a few minutes of tranquility while slipping tears from her eyes.

For the mum who is so tired that she feels she can't continue, that she would give anything for a moment of peace.

For the mum who cries in her room for having scolded the kids for a nonsense that makes her feel guilty.

For the mum who desperately battles when wearing denim pants because she wants to look pretty and wear them to feel better.

For the mum who asks for dinner pizza because she didn't reach the time to make dinner again as she expected.

For the mum who feels alone, even when she's accompanied.

You're worth a lot.
You are important.
You are enough.

This is a stage, a crazy and challenging stage for all moms.
But in the end everything will be worth it. For now it's hard. Difficult in many and different ways for each of us. We don't always talk, but we all fight, you're not alone.
You are enough.
You give the best of you.
Those little eyes that observe you think you're perfect, they think you're more than perfect.
Those little hands that ask for your arms, they think you're the strongest and you can conquer the world.
Those little mouths eating what you cook, they think you're the best
Those little hearts looking for yours, they want nothing but you.
Because you are enough for them, you are more than enough, mum.
You are wonderful...

Mum Care should be available to all mums everywhere to make the above just a little bit easier.

Mums deserve more than a bunch of flowers or slippers. This Mother's Day, we're thinking of meaningful ways we can show mums (and mother figures) we love them. 💝The most important part: it's not just one day a year - this is a year-round change.

Here are our ideas to kick off 👇

- List all household chores and propose a fairer share
- Acknowledge the invisible work they do
- Organise a 1:1 activity
- Take initiative to do tasks, instead of being asked
- Schedule a weekly check-in
- Listen without becoming defensive
- Follow through on what you say you will do
- Make their 'me-time' possible by planning ahead

We're wishing everyone a safe, happy and restful Mother's Day, whatever it looks like for you. And to those who have lost a mum, navigated a challenging relationship with their mum, or faced an uphill journey in becoming one, our thoughts are with you. We see you, today and every day.

Yes,Yes,Yes! We are all the mums we are meant to be. 🩷
~~~~
I’m not exactly the mom I wanted to be.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m not the mom who makes sure everything I feed my kids is healthy and organic.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m not the mom who gets everything done on her to-do list.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m not the mom who feels confident in every decision I make. I’m wishy-washy on most days on mostly everything.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m not the mom who goes to bed early so I can wake up every morning refreshed. Instead, I find myself up late watching Netflix or worrying.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m not the put-together mom, who has all the answers, and the perfect outfit and hair to match.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m not the mom who stays calm over every bump and bruise, and sometimes I make the situation worse by my reaction.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
But I’m the mom who can tell something is wrong by just a glance.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m the mom who cried when I left my child at preschool, and they peeled her from my legs.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I’m the mom that’s far from perfect.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
𝐁𝐮𝐭 no one knows and loves my kids better.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
And in their eyes, I’m everything,⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
So, by just being me,⁣⁣⁣
I’m the mom my kids need.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Because they don’t need an idea⁣⁣⁣
they need a mom who is 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 and 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮.⁣⁣⁣

Its Saturday morning -

In the heart of a home where chaos runs freely—a place where dishes tower like unsteady skyscrapers, toys carpet the floor in a kaleidoscope of colors, and the air vibrates with the kids playing or fighting—there is calm.

Amidst the chaos, this mum pauses. This pause is not because she is done, but of realization. As she stands tall, against the backdrop of her home, eyes closed, she checks in, breathing in the moment. She asks herself - Is she ok, is she overwhelmed, can she get through this morning?

With every breath, she draws in peace and exhales stress. Her smile is soft, yet powerful—a testament to her strength. It's not that the chaos doesn't reach her; it's that she chooses to meet it with grace. In this moment, surrounded by her mum life, she is more than just okay. She is content and grounded.

This is a reminder to us all. In the eye of the storm, we can find our calm. Amidst the mess,the noise and the tears, there is beauty and laughter to be cherished. Because, in the end, it's not about the chaos; it's about how we embrace it. And just like her, in the midst of it all, we can be okay too.

While the journey of motherhood comes with its unique set of challenges and joys. If you find yourself seeking support, inspiration, or a community that understands, remember you're not alone. Visit our website for resources for a helping hand through your journey.
