You’ll have to speak up, I have 3 kids! #parenting #mumlife #workingmum #twinmum

Hearing your children laugh: priceless.

For everything else, there’s alcohol!

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

Is talking to yourself an age thing or a crazy thing? I’m definitely moving up the ranks on both counts.

I think the secret to a lot of parenting problems is to just lower your expectations.

That and decent noise-cancelling headphones.

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

@DaddingAround This happened to me once.
It’s actually quite cruel of them because now you have hope 😏

@sarcasticmommy4 This wine tastes like dinner. Cheers 🥂

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

Parenting is just like waitressing. Only the customer is always rude. And never goes home!!

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

Right, the twins have just turned 4 and I finally have some brain space for Twitter again.
What did I miss?

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

I don’t know who needs to hear this today but dream away. How can you ever achieve a goal you haven’t set. 💭

Daylight saving: great for farmers, shit for parents!

And yet when you offer them a toddler safe, nutritious and delicious meal it goes straight onto the floor. 🤷‍♀️ toddlers truly defy evolution!

Quick scribble for any parents of young kids x

@threetimedaddy I wrote 4 chapters about 3 years ago and haven’t touched it since. Does that count? You could say it’s in progress.🤔

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

My 1 year old says ‘o-k’ and ‘no-k’ and I guess I’m wondering why the rest of us don’t 🤷‍♀️

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

Do you have a legal problem you just can’t seem to solve??

Find yourself a preschooler. The sneaky monkeys can find a loophole in almost anything!!!

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

@NonMaternalMum This has happened to me too. There is only one baby in this bed and his head is facing a pillow at the front of the picture 😱

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

@NotYoMama9 Mostly 🤣

[The Mum Bum @themumbum]

I bet you couldn’t parent my kid without using reverse psychology 🙃

@adhd_mum @MsJayLee22 @Mrs_JGplus3 To be more decisive... or maybe to worry less about everything. 🤔 No- to be more decisive!! Hmm, although it would be good to worry less. Ok definitely the more decisive trait... Aaagghhhh 😣

@themumbum I wondered if you could re-tweet this link for my friend and her 3 year old daughter who is going through a horrific time with the return of stage 4 cancer, neuroblastoma https://t.co/9gojMSad3N

@NonMaternalMum All the Julia Donaldson books, I think the first explorer books were good at this age too- lots of talking points. X
