Being mum is always, being on call 24 hours a day,7 days a week.
Being Mum is being there to hear the laughter and wipe away the tears.
Being Mum is to pick it up off the floor , when you have said it shouldn't be there.
Being Mum is to fetch it, carry it, mend it and wipe it .
Being Mum is to get it SO wrong, when you think you have it JUST right.
Being Mum is for giving cuddles in the dead of the night, from scary monsters that have given them a fright.
Being Mum is being first up in a morning and last one to bed at night, then getting up to pop in the PE kit, you forgot to wash.
Being Mum is tiring, when those teeth refuse to show, when that tummy bug keeps doing the rounds, and when after 2 hours sleep they keep going like a DURECELL bunny.
Being Mum, is helping make their decisions that will make their future, and waiting for them to get home from the Rock Concert.
I wouldn't change being a mum for all the tea in China, as much as i shout and love and kiss and yell and go blue in the face , they are my kids and I LOVE THEM
