I Am Honest

The truth is that I am not the best mum in the world... In fact, I haven't a compass which points towards true greatness. The needle spins about. So, I muddle through motherhood relying on feedback from the children and from Jon. Is that wrong? Probably.

Just when I thought I had done something fantastic and I was about to pat myself on the back and say "Good one Mum!"... that is when I hear negative feedback from one of the other children. So, perhaps you cannot make all of them happy all of the time. Is that it? I don't know... I am only asking the honest questions. Does anyone feel like they are a great parent? How do you do it?

I can't speak from personal experience. But if you ask the kind of questions that you do in your post, I think you are probably an excellent mum.
