The funny side to life as a working single Mum. My stories of embarrassing escapades, toddler tantrums and great expectations.

Times they are a-changin'
"Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'."
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'."
Bob Dylan
To say that parenting is an ever evolving, eternally eveloping partnership is, for me, stating the ever obvious. In the case of Ethan and I, our relationship as parent and child has been through huge changes within a short space of time. While the causes of these changes may not have always been positive, our relationship is solid, stable and strong. Now, this isn't me preaching as to my fantastic parenting but making a declaration of independence. Independence against the natural order of parenting as guilt ridden. While I am in no way suggesting I do not feel standard parent guilt, I have also grown to acknowledge that I am good at what I do. I am a very good full time working, single Mum of one well adjusted little boy.
When looking at my friends and how we have changed, kids or no kids, I am certain of one thing. We have all grown better with age, or maybe it just took this long to see ourselves for who we really are?
