After this morning I know I am doing a good job...

My nearly 3yo dd told me 'you are the best mummy in the whole world' followed by a massive hug.

Being a lone parent is hard but when they do things like that it makes it all worth while

What do you dc do that makes you realise you are doing ok?

The other night my 2yo ds said sweet dreams mama before I shut his bedroom door. I felt all warm & fuzzy inside.

I was putting my two year old to bed, and lay down next to him. He wriggled over to me, pressed his back right against me, pulled my arm across his tummy, and said "hold me close, in case I get lost".

I sort of melted!
