Join the ‘It Only Takes #ONEMum’ meme

We’re delighted that our #ONEMums / #ONEMoms trip to Ethiopia – where BritMums is going along with Michelle Pannell from Mummy from the Heart to highlight the success stories of programmes funded by Britain’s foreign aid – has inspired Clare from Seasider in the City to create the ‘It Only Takes #OneMum’ meme.

The focus of our #ONEMums trip is joyful as well as serious, and Clare’s meme highlights that. For the meme, she writes:

In an acronym style…take the letters of ONEMums (or ONEMoms) and create phrases or just words that sum up being a mum for you.

You can be as serious or witty as you like. Whatever you choose to do, make sure you add the link to sign up for ONE to your post and then add yourself to the linky. Spread the word and encourage others to join in.ou

Here’s my version of what motherhood means to me:

Overwhelming in myriad ways

Nights without sleep (from babyhood through teen years)

Endless

Momentous

Unquestionably the hardest job I’ve every done

My mother was right all along

Silly to have every doubted it
