Dear discheveled mum

Dear Discheveled mum,

High five for getting out of the house even though you look exhausted

Good on you for taking hold of your four year olds hand and stopping when he wants to show you every toy upon the shelves.

Enjoy those hotdogs and milkshakes with your little men, watching them giggle as they eat is truly beautiful isnt it?

Dear Disheveled mum,

Dont fret, your boys will remember the good times, the smiles the laughs

Dont stress, the bad days are numbered the good days are plentiful

Be kind, to yourself, everyone has bad days, sad days, tired days, thats ok!

Dear Disheveled mum,

You're amazing, you're wonderful and your children are proud of you

You're a wonderful mum, the fact you doubt that just proves that you are

You're everything your family need and more, their shining faces prove that

Dear Disheveled mum

Laugh with your children, they love you today and always

Love those around you, spread it, share it, feel it

Take time for yourself, a 5minute cup of tea in peace is just what the doctor ordered.


Always be kind, always share love and always remember that you ARE good enough, today and always.

I wrote this to remind myself that today is just a day, a bad day that will pass. My children love me and thats all that matters.
Hey mums, dads, grandparents and carers...YOU ROCK!

My hairs not done, my kids have mismatched socks and we ate hotogs for lunch, BUT we survived!

  1. Read your story and just want to commend you for being such a great 'real' parent. Have never never understood the beef some ignorant people have with breastfeeding in public. My wife and I have only considered natural feeding and no other way about it. Seems to be ok for critics to engage in all manner of debauchery in public, but take issue with a mom doing the most natural and beautiful thing for her kids. Their behavior is rooted in selfishness. Hit the ignore button on those with no soul! Lots of love and luck to you and your kids!
