I visited a nursery for my son's admission, there was a moment which had me fixated!
While in conversation with a teacher, my son came, pulled a chair and sat besides me, said a hello, introduced himself. She said it shows how much efforts I give in to raise him...& story went on

Once home her words still resonated in me... "Beta, say THANK YOU MUMMA, she's been there for you all this while, giving up whatever she was, chose to quit her job to raise you better, no one else can do that for you"
I had tears of joy pondering over such words coming from a total stranger meant a lot, otherwise you get such motivation from your mother and girlfriends only,
Daily, we share memes about #sahmlife ~ I have a from I wake up till I close my eyes job

~I am a full time cook, cleaner, driver, teacher, nurse, doctor, , life coach, fashion designer, DIY pro besides being a mom and a wife

~ my favourite part of the day is doing laundry

OR

People saying generalised statements like

~Oh you stay at home, you have so much time for yourself & family, then why is it the #stayathomemom who always looks dishelved

~Wish I also didn't go to work just like you

~Don't you get bored

~Don't you feel FOMO

~I never thought you'll choose to live such a life
Believe me, appreciation is what we not get being a #SAHM from Women who have also been at such cross roads in life
So yes, her words made my day... because I keep myself on the background for both of the guys I love from the bottom of my heart, I also know if I was working I couldn't have been a mother and a wife that I am right now
I will eventually start working and give it #inyourface to the ones who judged me, but its not the right time
I am at peace with myself and my man, respects my choice and appreciates it.

But such kind words of acknowledgment from WOMEN means a lot #womenspiration #strongwoman #strongwife #strongermother #positiveparenting #supportsystem #wellbehavedkid #milestone #bbcreators #motherhood #bbcreatorsclub #resmomsibility
