I am not super woman, I cannot do everything. I cannot be responsible for everything. I am not a mind reader I do not keep a track of your deodorant or your toothpaste, please let me know if these supplies are getting low. I cannot clean your rooms without touching anything...so either you clean the mess or deal with the fact that I may move stuff.
I am not a waliking diary and may forget when you need to be somewhere especially if you have not asked me to make a note of it. I am sorry for the times when I have forgotten something. Please help me by reminding me, there are 5 of you and 1 of me!
I love all of you but our house is not a restaurant or a hotel therefore dinner will be made but I do not take requests except for birthdays.
I have washed cleaned and cooked for you all for over 20 years now, could you perhaps make dinner occasionally? Also I do not iron clothes that will be stored in a heap on the bedroom floor.
There are times when the words please and thank you are like a healing balm, so please remember to use them.
I am proud of you all, I enjoy your concerts plays and sports events but...I can only drive to one place at a time and be in one place at a time, though when the twins were babies new gifts emerged for listening to more that one at a time!
I have a life too and need some time to relax, there are certain TV programmes I enjoy, and I like to read book more that three words at a time; and sometimes even need to get in the shower first !!!
Don't get me wrong I am not moaning or complaining simply letting you know that I am here!
Lots of love
Mum x
