well, i'd never thought about how difficult for a single mom would be until i hv my own kid. the thing is even my busy husband is helping, i still feel helpless sometimes. and that really made me appreciate what single parents have been through. deep down, every mom must've thought of a moment where she would consider herself as a supermom. well, how to define "supermom"?! does it matter? .-= lululu´s last blog ..Miso Soup with Clams and Tofu =-.

I get that alot as well... If they had a peek into my life, they'd realize that I have a lot going on, and something is always falling between the cracks because of it. We need to get over the "supermom" ideal and assuming that the other mom is doing it better. .-= patsyk´s last blog ..Chocolate & Peanut Butter Duo Cookies =-.

balance..balance..balance...I have a hard time with that. Something suffers when we do so many things but in the end it's all about priorities. Lovely stack of pancakes! .-= veron´s last blog ..A tribute to Julia =-.

… and that’s the truth!
I like best the idea of “the good enough parent”. It’s real and the if there’s plenty of love, your kids look back and know you were/are a super mom … that may not happen until they have kids of their own.

It's going to be hard to shake the label as we moms are our own worst enemies. I know at times I look at others and feel so inadequate and less accomplished in trying to balance it all, home, work, husband the kids...reminding myself that it's not a competition helps:-) .-= Wizzythestick´s last blog ..How to Give someone Bad News =-.

I was trying to decide what to cook for supper tonight and couldn’t come up with any good ideas, but then I read this recipe. Oh, my! These are delicious. The banana flavor really comes through and they are so moist. My husband and I both really enjoyed them and I am looking forward to leftovers for breakfast tomorrow!
