CrunchyBread my attitude is my choice
How I did it: I was nervous as a young mother. I never thought I did anything well enough. I always compared myself to the mythical "supermom" who always did everything right and looked pretty while doing it. After a few years experience I have come to realize the best thing you can do for your kids is not to try to be perfect -- just admit your mistakes and weaknesses and let them know you're human too. … Read how I did it…

It is surely the little everyday things that make a great mother. I hope to give to my kids passion for life, comfort in knowing I love them, and the bravery to become themselves. I am very conscious of the fact that putting off being a great mother to earn the money we need to eat etc. can result in my being ready for them when they no longer need me. I will work to be a great mom now and always!
He came from me, why wouldn’t I want to give him my best, he is all I have… literally the air that I breath…
Don’t know of for me this is a SMART objective:
- Specific – yes
- Measurable – first i have to be a mother,and then become a great one
- Achievable – hope so!
- Realistic – yes (my mother did it)
- Time-framed – if not for me,by my biological clock
Don’t know about this one!

I feel so inadaquate some times …. I don’t know what to do but to keep doing anything I can. Its all so exhausting. specially since I have to be mom and dad (and work and have a personal life). I’m finding it harder and harder to fill both roles. since he is getting older and understands a lot more. sometimes when I hug him and say goodnight. my arms get stuck and I cant let go. I wish he understood me when I say “Im trying as hard as I can baby” I hurt because this isn’t how it was suppose to be. I thought I was going to be his mom. but I have to work and go to school and live and be young. fuck. If only I could hate his father. at least Id have something to release the pain. but I cant hate him … it would mean hating part of what my baby is. money is always short. patience is always thin and weary. Im always just a little bit tired. or preoccupied. fuck sake. I just want to be a good mom. I want to be there and I want him to feel loved and safe. Im trying… I really am… I guess I just have to try harder.

Well lifes been getting better I have my confidence back. Johnny is wonderful. I think Im getting there. and Im so glad.
I know that I am a good mother, but I want to be a great mother. I think being a great mother means to be understanding, patient, open, honest, respectful, and wise. I work very hard at all of the above, to be there for my kids the best way I know how. I give them what I desired as a kid and that is communication with my parents. I enjoy spending time with my children, I let them know that they are my world. I try to be positive even when I am feeling negative. If it takes me going outside to play basketball with my son and his friends everyday, then that’s what I will continue to do. Besides I like having that time with my son. It means a lot that I go out there to spend time with him and his friends. I will continue to have girl day’s with my daughter, it gives us that girl time that we need to have girl talk together. I will continue to play leggo’s with my 5 year old if that is what gives us the one on one time together. I always make sure that they all get they’re own special day with me. It gives me time to know my children and it allows us to have our one on one talks together. I wouldn’t trade being a MOM for the world. I love being a mother. Time together means laughing, dancing, and acting crazy in the store or at the park. When I look at my children, I remember what it was like to be a kid and acting like one comes naturally. My kids love when I step out of the MOMMY role and bring myself down to they’re level. Besides, life is to short to not enjoy life with your children. But when it comes to being an adult, my kids know I mean business. Hehe…:) I LOVE MY BABIES!

bloomsday616 is having a baby this month!!
I absolutely love being a mom – and I have the most beautiful and amazing daughter! I want to have a close relationship with my daughter and I want to give her all of the tools to live a good life. Being a mother and raising my daughter is the most important thing in my life right now, well, besides being a good wife and maintaining a close relationship with my husband. My daughter will be 6 months old tomorrow, and it’s already going too fast! I have so much to look forward to with her, but I want to enjoy every day and every moment as it happens so I don’t miss a thing!
it takes so much, but man, my son is the product of love.
and even though i am alone in raising this child, i am so grateful that i am capable of it.
he deserves an amazing woman, and i intend to be just that.
I’m having a baby and i want to be the best mum in to my baby, but i have a problem i don’t know anything about babies.
