To mummies everywhere...
Your hair may be unwashed. Your teeth might be unbrushed. The nail varnish on your toes is definitely chipped. If you're really unlucky, your boobs will be leaking on your top.
You probably have sick on your shoulder. You certainly have food on you somewhere. And who knows what that stain on your jeans is.
Your tummy is inevitably soft, maybe even scarred. Your shoulders most likely ache. Your tired eyes are bound to have bags under them.
Your temper could be a bit frayed. Your laugh can be forced. Your smile is sometimes put on.
Don't worry about it. This just shows what an amazing job you are doing keeping your little one happy and healthy.
And know this. In the eyes of your child you are absolutely beautiful. Your laugh lights up their heart. Your cuddle is the warmest, softest, safest place in the world.
So go easy on yourself mummy. No one needs you to be perfect. Life is not a glossy magazine. It might not always feel like it, but you are amazing. You are absolutely amazing.
