Being a Mum is the best thing in the world isn't it? There's nothing quite like it and there's certainly nothing better in the entire world than getting to raise our own tiny people into their own big people.
But, the journey of parenthood isn't always smooth.
Some days it seems to all go to plan, the balance is right, everyone is eating their meals, you don't feel like you've had to split yourself into a million tiny pieces to please everyone, all the balls are successfully being juggled and the parent-guilt is a distant memory.
But there are also days as a parent where it feels like there's just not enough of us to go around and no matter how hard we try, we could be standing on our head juggling balls (I'm not sure how that would work either) the day just doesn't quite go to plan. And no matter how much we know we've tried and done our best, the parent guilt still comes out in full force (mine usually see's me in tears whilst I'm picking up the food I've just cooked that's been thrown all over the floor).
It's certainly a whirlwind of emotions being a parent. I always say that as easy as it is to love my boys, it's not always so easy to actually raise them.
