For the mums, you are a whole heap of words you don’t hear. Whether encouraging or calling you out on your s**t, it’s a self inspiring job that promotes with age and wisdom.
No matter where you are in your stage of motherhood, we are feeling similar but different and going through motions supported by ourselves and possibly others if fortunate. Though we keep so much to ourselves. It’s keeps the peace. Calms the farm.
So this post is to let you know this:
Some words/sentences for you to tell yourself:
I am proud of you, Awesome work, I love you, Bloody awesome, You amaze me, Love you mum, You are so smart! You make me smile, I see you, You make me feel loved, Your hugs are the best 🩷
From the kids:
Thanks for being my mum, rock, chef, taxi, confidant, cheerleader, alarm clock, personal assistant, housemaid, queen, book of knowledge, entertainer, creator, incubator, carer, organiser, more and more I’m sure but these are the ones that come to mind!
As my life is changing rapidly and 2026 is delivering it in bulk, adjusting to things, I imagine my kids saying stuff like this to me. Even adults. Because we aren’t always praised like we praise others. We do it unconditionally because of the love and strength we have within our cells, bodies and hearts. We rinse and repeat. We keep going. Most of us anyway.
So, for today, praise the s**t outta yourself for being the best mum ever! With what you’ve got, what you know and with the energy you can give to yourself! You are so worth it.
