Clumsy Mom

A project by
Chiaki-sana former childcare worker and mom-writer of two who I'm joining in the #LazyDailyUpdateClub!

Deadline is 5/21 at 23:59!

The theme is
"The wonderful things about my 'mother'"
You can write about your own mother, or about yourself as a mother!

So, with that in mind...

A story about a clumsy mom!

One day, my daughter said to me...

"Mom, you're kind of a klutz, aren't you?"

Huh?

What?

You're kidding, right?

I thought I was reasonably serious,
studied reasonably well,
got a reasonably difficult certification,
and was bringing home a reasonable salary...

Wait?

Wait, wait, wait~?

...

No, that's not it.

That's not what she meant.

...

...

...

I really was a klutz!!!

Yes.

Confirmed clumsy.

But you know,

even with me like this,

“I love you!”

“You're cute”

“You're doing great”

my daughter says to me.

Ah, I see.

It's okay to be clumsy.

Whether a mom who gets called clumsy is “wonderful” is debatable, though, haha.

Even so.

Being the mother of a daughter who says things like this is something I think is “wonderful.”

Thank you for loving even my clumsy side.

If even a little,
if even one person,
can smile and feel positive, I'd be happy.♡

I'd be happy.
