Unfiltered parenting stories

Anyone with small children quickly realizes that your mug is no longer your own. Neither is that half-bitten treat you were saving for later. Even going to the bathroom becomes an event – a tiny human is sitting next to you, watching your every move like it’s the most fascinating thing in the world. Well, it’s kind of fun, and you do feel loved. But for four out of my five pregnancies, I lived in this reality, with these circumstances only growing – partly due to the fact that I chose to keep my kids at home instead of sending them to kindergarten. So, my biggest challenge was to balance it all without losing myself and my mental well-being in between all my children and their wants and needs, the household, and the everyday chores – which, as we all know, is a lot.
And let’s be real – we all need a break sometimes. It’s not just a want, it’s a necessity.

IT ALL STARTED WITH A SEED

If you are reading those lines, then it seems, that we have some important things in common. Like tiny footprints on the bedsheet, wonderful and funny family pictures on the wall, always cold cup of morning coffee or tea, full diaper on the couch, dog with small stickers in his fur, ongoing inner discussion about whether to start baby led weaning or find the old blender to make purees, my phone again lost in the playing corner, loaded in the new cargo van, and very likely- bad sleep the previous night due to baby teething. Sounds familiar? Oh, or probably you are expecting and waiting for your absolutely big day more than your graduation party or wedding day with excitement and a little fear. Or probably dreaming and planning your future family. No matter what situation you are in, I feel you and I know what you are going through, I have been there and I am still in it. I am like your pen friend who probably understands you more than you know.
