Good Mum
At 35 years of age I still need my Mum.
I do find it hard to ask for help, so luckily my Mum gives help frequently, efficiently & without being asked. She is a devoted Nanny to her 5 grandchildren & very present in all their lives.
....however she selfishily took herself away on holidays & I'm feeling the heat without her.
Cooper, the crankiest duck, had me completely worn out last week. After many sleepless, fussy hours & at my wits end I packed the car, strapped in the child & drove to Nanny's holiday haven, about 90 minutes away.
On arrival, she took Cooper & sent me to bed....I slept for 9 precious hours & felt like a new woman! I headed home the next morning, refreshed & ever grateful to my darling, wonderful Ma.
Let's hope she doesn't take her next vacation overseas.

Love that! What a great mom you have. In turn, you are going to be great, as you've obviously learned from the best!
Your mom sounds heavenly!
And that is one cute picture!
ohhh you lucky thing. ( :( *sob sob*) I am very jealous. I so wish my mum or dad were alive to help me. It is now that I am missing them more than ever. Enjoy her! Cooper - you might be the crankiest duck on the block but you are still the cutest little tacker!
My Mum is like that ...Cooper is so adorable, congratulations on your precious little bundle of blue.
That is so cute! That is a great mum and I bet the same kind of mum you are :-) Caring and giving..
What a cutie Cooper is!
I still need my mum too! Congrats!
My mom's awesome too. She offered to take my little guy for the weekend, but when it came time, I couldn't bear him leaving that long. I remember her staying the night a my house his first surgery and took the night shift so I could sleep. What an angel!
Eleven more days until I see my mom!!
Cooper is the cutest cranky duck in the whole world.
Nothing like good ole Mum, to save the day !!!
Gotta admit...that is one cute photo but LMAO....

"There once was a cranky duckling, his face all covered in kisses. His Mummy and his Daddy said "don't be a cranky duckling" and he just said "Get me my damn milk"." lol a silly ditty - it started as a song, was going to be a little story book and ended up just being that. (although the crankiest duckling would make a fantastic kids story!)
It's amazing the difference actual sleep makes :)

9 hours of sleep? wow- a girl can dream!
That is one gorgeous baby - even with that scrunched up scowl!
