TAG!


I was tagged by Tressa at American in Norway for Around the World in 80 Clicks. I’m supposed to share five things I love about being a mother. Then tag other mom’s around the world…

Five things I love about being a mother…

1. Cuddles and kisses – they can never give enough and neither can I.

2. Companionship – I like taking one (1!) child with me to the shops or on an errand as an opportunity for them to learn and for us to spend time together. If its two of them, they usually squabble and I am ignored.

3. Wondering what character traits they will inherit from family and how they will develop into adults.

4. Watching them learn new skills and become better and more confident.

5. Seeing the wonderful friendship they give to each other, even through the bad moments.

**************************************

Kirwin – Graceful Creative

My mother Teresa, who doesn´t have a blog, but can write her first ever comment please!

Annie from One Mother´s Day

Mrs Get Stuff Done

Tiff from A Simple Family
