Why I should write another Mommy blog?


My son is 5 yrs old and nothing drastic has happened in my life recently. I have a pretty typical routine and there is  nothing much going on.

But then, I believe I am unique (mom), like every other mom out there. I thought about penning a blog on motherhood, which will not really be an autobiography or knowledge sharing place. I don't think I will write about how great it is to be pregnant or on "how to be pregnant" and talk about the feathers and caps that should be worn by a new mom. 

I love reading all kind of Mommy blogs, written about this big life changing event. Those blogs helps me survive my motherhood. I learnt about babies, diapers, crazy food habits and now I can even brave the world of advice, thrown at me, from every side on parenting choices thanks to mommy stories shared in the world-wide-web.

But after walking the world in my mommy shoes for 5 yrs and seeing other talented mothers all around me, I realized I am a very lousy Mom person. Don't get me wrong, I think I am doing a decent job in bringing up my LO (that's what they should be called nowadays).I am sure my son and husband loves me in my Mom avatar (they better do , if they want food on the table) but I am not like a real mom person and will never come close to being one.

But I think I will fill this blog, with anecdotes, my quick fixes, quickly fixed meal plans, easy excuses. I will dedicate this to the women out there who never wanted to be a mom and became one. Still wonder at this sudden change in fate (Why me!!!) but adores being the Queen mother in their own home.  

If you have enjoyed motherhood, but still shed tears, thinking of your single free life, you complain about PMS all through the month, and still wonder if you get post partum depressions (when your kid is a grown up), love to smother your LO with endless love, but love to watch them with even more delight when they are peacefully sleeping, Secretly, wish there was more night outs and coffee dates and enjoy guilt free me time, then you  you may like my words.
