10 Reasons Why I Love Being A Mummy...

Not this kind....

I decided to list ten things I love about being a mummy because just lately I feel that I have been focusing too much on the negative things.

It's been a bit stressful so I hope that by thinking/posting about all the positives, it will help me change my attitude... therefore returning harmony to our little household!

So without further ado:

10 Reasons Why I Love Being A Mummy...

1. Sharing all the "first-times". First time they open their little peepers to the world, first time they cry, first time they hold your finger, first tooth, first time they try a new action... you get the idea.
2. I have a guaranteed supply of cuddles and kisses a day.
3. Life makes sense since my babies came along.
4. I laugh more. Today for example: after considering the fact that milk and cheese are the products from cows, my two year old asked if we could get one... Smart thinking kid!
5. I can be proud of how I "grew" and nurtured two, healthy human beings...
6. I can watch kids cartoons (It's called research people! I have to be up to date and know my kids favourite characters don't I?!)
7. I love how my children accept me as I am. It doesn't seem to matter how I dress/wear my hair/ that I have bags under my eyes/haven't noticed that baby dribble on my shoulder...
8. They bring out my best qualities and I feel I can conquer anything. (Mummies are fearless)
9. WE MAKE A MESS AND HAVE OODLES OF FUN! (Making play dough, sticking, painting etc)
10. I love that the world is a new and exciting place to these little guys, and it makes you see things for the first time. Just looking at a rainbow after a heavy down-pour or finding a lady-bug out in the garden is fascinating...

What about you? Why do you love being a parent?
If you're not a parent, what makes you happy about being you?!


Thanks for reading.

If you look closely; it's a double rainbow! Isn't that supposed to be lucky?
