Mother's day: Being a new Mum to a toddler means.......

My first mother's day, and yes the time is 5am!

Looking slightly more glammed up


Being a new Mum to a toddler means......
Never having uninterrupted phone calls
Learning to walk around the block very slowly
Starting to sing again
Conducting endless one sided conversations (let’s go …, there’s a …, where’s the….)
Forgetting things (the pusher at Clifton Hill shops, my wallet, the nappy bag)
Losing things (bibs, hats, cups, toys, books)
Making mistakes (washing a disposable nappy, what a mess)
Vowing to stop finishing off half eaten biscuits, bits of toast and tubs of yogurt
Having grimy fingermarks over everything
Feeling tired all the time
Going to bed at 8.30 and waking at 5
Thinking that waking at 7 is a fabulous sleep in
Enthusiastically reading the same book over and over and over
Taking time to watch the clouds, smell flowers, feel the rain
Making new friends (at playgroup, swimming, the park)
Enjoying winning smiles and beautiful hugs and kisses
Being as happy as I can ever remember
