Mama in Training

Recently the Ant Bug and I had a conversation about mothers.

Ant Bug: “I want to be a mommy when I grow up.”

Nurture Mama: “How do you learn how to be a mommy?”

Ant Bug: “You just grow up, and then you know how to be a mommy.”

So until my little girls grow up, we are training to develop some of the most commonly used mommy skills.

Making lunch

Reading to children

Cleaning house

Baking

Occasionally getting dressed up

Doing the laundry

Multitasking: Holding a baby while blogging or checking email

Home repairs

And the most important skill of all: nurturing your babies.
