Why am I a good enough Mum?
I am a good enough Mum to my twin boys aged 7. I know this now, but when they were babies I had no idea. I often worried that I was providing them with the very best life, and I, had to offer. A conversation with a friend in those early days helped me to realise that I didn't need to provide the best of everything - I just needed to be good enough. My life (and theirs) since then has been much happier and easier. I don't need to home cook from scratch every single meal they eat, I don't need to be calm in the face of every emergency and I don't need to be the perfect Mum. I KNOW I am a good enough Mum - and you know what I am proud of that!
