30 Day of Me challenge:
Well, perhaps this one is not your typical stereotype super-heroine, but no doubt you would likely agree when I say: Our mothers! All mothers!
Firstly:
* They carry a child in their womb for 9 months
* After birth, they care less about shedding birth weight than running to their childs bedside upon every whimper, moan or cry 24/7 … though running MUST contribute significantly post-baby weightloss
* The sleepless nights do not end just cause their child now sleeps through the night – long after their child resumes sleep, many hours can be spent through the night thinking about, organising & being anxious about what the next day may hold for them
* They cook; clean; work; do homework; visit teachers; run to sports, events, movies & mates; wipe noses; changes dirty nappys; wash, hang, fold, iron and put away countless items of clothings (it seems); kiss & nurse wee injuries; answer to every child that calls ‘mum’ in a public place; … and do I really have time to finish this list, as it will just go on
* That she literally seems to be stuck with glue by their bedside when their child lays ill
* Their love for their child is undoubtedly unconditional
* Even after their child is grown the above still applies, and really only escalates especially when they have grandchildren
So my real-life superhero: My mum & all mums!
MUM!
