When

• When you are so tired it hurts

• When you are sick of painkillers but cant manage without them

• When you desperatly want another baby, but seriously doubt the possibility

• When you love being a Mama, but often feel bored to death

• When your hair, nails and eyebrow grooming comes after play-doh monster on the things to do list

• When you have a huge trampoline in the garden but cant risk a bounce

• When you used to be slim and confident and are now overweight with zero confidence

• When one best friend moves to New Zealand and the other dumps you when a late baby comes your way

• When you are neat fanatic without the energy to carry it through (so it drives you mad)

• When you are often anemic so look much better with a tan but dont usually tan and in fact go an impressive shade of lobster

• When all of these niggles go away because your two year old lays a chubby little arm around you and say 'I dont like you Mummy, I LOVE you'

Then you will have some idea of what fills my day.
