Being more than a mum

Is it just me or do you sometimes feel that all you can remember being now is a mum?

For as long as i could remember i was a career woman, i started working at 16 and didn’t stop until we had our little boy, im now 31. Over the last 20 months i have enjoyed although frustrating at times being a mum however im now at the point where im starting to realise that im soo much more than just that. Yes we often hear people say that your not just a mum, your a housewife, a cook, a cleaner, a driver, a comforter, a parent but we are so much more than that. We are strong women who can juggle bloody well and if motherhood has taught me anything its that.

Be the best mum you want to be but dont forget who you are and what you are capable of along the way.

My new years resolution for 2016 is to do something for me, it might be to do a course, learn a language, join a charity or just make some new friends.

Is this selfish? who knows, i mean in this day im sure there will be people out there who think so but i know if im happy, my children are happy and my husband is happy then life is good.
