Those unspeakable things some moms do…Ok I’ll confess !
Yes, I confess. It’s confession time ! As you probably understood, I am not a Super Mom, in my opinion. I’m not a Perfect Mother either. We’ve all heard about her. For me, she is above the Super Mom. A mother who has no (apparent) flaws, who knows how to do everything. A mother who never breaks down, who never gets angry. A mother who loves her children so much that she would /will do everything for them. A mother who always puts her children first, or displays her family and professional success ostentatiously. A mother who is always available, who is so organized that it would scare an ant…

24 good reasons to have children
Are there really good reasons to have children one might ask ? By one I mean any sane person really. Take one of those days where we “honor” the parents : Mother’s Day or Father’s Day. I am not a big fan of Mother’s day. There is too much pressure. This is when you truly realize how bad your kids are at crafts, or how soppy they can get. There is also pressure on you as the child of a mother. Your mother will probably lose it if she can’t sleep in or if you didn’t get her anything even though she said she didn’t want anything. Anyway, I decided…

Arrival of my first child : what nobody told me
This week, I have a guest post written by Emeline, 31 years old, who shares her feelings following the birth of her first child. Please note that this article is not for the fainthearted (ie future moms, or men) unless you want to hear the truth that is being withheld from you (the truth is no longer out there, it’s here !). Here is her post : Well nobody told me that My Good Lady ! “When I was pregnant with my first, I didn’t do any research. I never really read any books on preparing baby’s arrival, or breastfeeding advice and guidelines, nothing on…

Why are kids so annoying ?
This is one big question that annoyed people frequently ask. We were once children, and today we have them. We can now fully appreciate and understand those strange looks we used to get from adults a few years ago when all we did was act cute and tell those adults (parents, aunts/uncles, parents’ friends that ended up no longer coming over afterwards surprisingly) to come play for the hundredth time. We love having them, yet we cannot keep ourselves from losing our minds and be frequently annoyed by them ! Do you know why ? Why are children so annoying ?! I was able to get 3 seconds minutes to…

Don’t be afraid of the Super Moms
For me, a Super Mom is a mom that manages to do every single thing and not complain ! She is my antonym in a way, me being “just” a simple mom (an annoyed mama or annoying mama depending on how you look at it). She is not a typical sancti-mommy because she will not always make you feel like a lesser mom, just a big lazy one. In fact, Super Mom (who would rather be called Perfect Mom, to be differenciated with the other imperfect moms maybe ?) can be scary. She manages everything from the kids to the grocery shopping, to the house cleaning, her work perhaps, the…
