Real Truth About Motherhood.....

I have started this blog to expose the real truths of motherhood.....that's right ladies.....the good, the bad, and the ugly!! The way we feel, think, act...everything. I want to demise the false notion that society has given us as mothers; that we must love our jobs and feel blissful everyday for these little "treasures" we have been blessed with.

A word of caution.....
You should not read this blog if you are a "perfect mom". You know the ones of you who love the "unspoken competition" that takes place between mothers. Those of you who believe that you have the best behaved, best dressed, all organicly fed children should not continue reading this! It will only waste your precious time. Time that you could be spending flourishing your little ones with omega 3's and phonics reading.

A little about me....
I am a mother of 3 children Tristen-5, Hannah-2.5, and Isabella 9 months. I have stayed at home with them pretty much since day one. My husband Matt and I have been married for 6 years. In those 6 years we have had three children, bought and sold 4 different homes, and most recently moved to a different province. Needless to say our lives have been very crazy and full of surprises; however I would not trade it for anything.

I will try to write everyday....between diapers, temper tantrums, and breastfeeding.....maybe every other day. Please feel free to leave reader comments. I truly welcome your feedback.

  4. Good job honey. Motherhood is a wonderful thing, but it takes a lot of hard work and patience. It is definately NOT all neatly tied up in a pretty ribbon. If anyone can dish out the truth it's you. Nobody is perfect, and nobody's children are perfect. This "unspoken competition" is very often a sign of somone who has low self-esteem and very little confidence. When you can stand up and "call em as you see em" that's a sign of complete and total confidence and knowing the difference between being a "perfect" mom and being a mom you children will always look up to.
    Love you always, Mom.
