FREE Mother’s Day Gift + Breakfasts The Kids Can Help Make

As mums we often stress that we’re not perfect. We put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be successful mothers, and to do it all. Well what if I told you that to everyone who matters, you’re already perfect?

In partnership with Woolworths

I often question if I am doing the best job at raising my kids. Am I a good mum? Am I too controlling? Am I giving them the right advice?  There have been many periods in my kids upbringing that I have struggled; the terrible two’s, starting school, and now even more so that the twins have turned 16 and are becoming really independent.

We are mums to our children, so shouldn’t it be their opinion that indicates whether we’re doing this ‘mum gig’ well? I mean we’re not mothering anyone else (and if you are, please stop, our other halves are very capable of standing on their own two feet – hehe!).

Life throws so many hurdles our way, and we all have those days (even weeks and months!) where we feel like we’re just keeping our heads above water. I think sometimes though, we’re the ones setting the bar too high for ourselves, because in reality, our kids are just fine. Our kids, for the most part, are happy.

Still not convinced? Then answer me these questions…

  • Are your kids warm?
  • Do they have full tummies?
  • Are your children loved?
  • Do they feel safe?

You see children don’t need the latest toys, 3 course meals, or expensive extra curricular activities. If they’ve got these then that’s fine, but without them you are still ticking all the right boxes.

In case you need a little reminder of how perfectly successful you already are, I am gifting this printable for FREE when you subscribe to my weekly newsletter. It’s a reminder that you’re doing an amazing job, and a thank you from me for your ongoing support and loyalty to The Organised Housewife.
