Mom Disclaimer

The Mom Disclaimer was created as a response to a hectic, moody week.  I thought of all the ways I could best describe this wild ride and how all the joys of raising babies, comes with many bad days and many non-smiley faces.  So as a public service to all, I have created a disclaimer on behalf of all supermoms for any bad day behavior and the wrath that may come from it.  

As moms, we are....

1. Superhumans - The brains and mechanics behind every healthy, happy and functioning child comes in the shape of a heavy hearted mama.

2. Not Perfect - Having said the above, we may or may not eff it all up. 

3. Speeding through time - Therefore, there is no time for drama.  

4. Emotional creatures- One, two or five babies later, our hormones have been tampered with, and left fragile. Tread lightly, they say. 

5. Multi-taskers- I once nursed my newborn son while pumping on the other side...while eating lunch and checking emails.  Really. 

6.  Over-achievers-  In the world of parenting, you don't just want to get it right.  You want your kids to learn from you first hand how to desire, work hard and attain.  

7.  Crazy- All joking aside, it is truly impossible not to be nutty.  

8.  Holding on to the past self- This means, that some of us have traded in party nights & Vegas one too many times for 2pm Batman parties with bouncey houses.  But every now and again, we want to take a shot of tequila and dance for blisters.  Like the good 'ol days. 

9. Constantly dreaming- It is in our being to dream big.  Always.

10. Happy to be here- Because this is what we whole heartedly chose to be.  

At any given moment, one of these could simply be describing the nature of a women.  But only a mom lives this to be true on the daily.  

You have been advised.
