I started this blog as a youngish first-time mom who didn’t know who I was as a “Mom” and now I’m an old mom of two beautiful little girls who inspire me and drive me crazy every single day!
I guess I won’t have this Mom business completely figured out for awhile (if ever!) but in the meantime writing when I have the rare chance is a way for me to make it through.
The name funnymummy came about 1) because every other name was already taken and 2) I thought it sounded good. But much to my hubby’s dismay he’s reminded of an actual mummy with the rags wrapped around it and everything. King Tut was not really the image I was going for. Secondly, I’m not British so it’s pretty much false advertising. I can’t even pretend to do a good English accent. I’m a complete sham!
I used to write a daily post but now I’m lucky if it’s a monthly post. I do all my best composing in the shower away from all the chaos and screaming. But with two kids now it’s almost impossible to shower let alone write but somehow I find the time to do one or the other. Showering usually wins and I think the hubby is happy about that.
I live in California with my funnyhubby, adorable munchkins, and menagerie of pets. We love going to the beach, watching the home improvement channel, and eating burritos. My hopes for this blog are to share a few humorous stories and figure out how to get over my own hangups so that my daughters won’t have my issues along with their own.
Wish me luck, lord knows I’ll need it!
I love your humor and I love you! You are already a great mom, you just don’t know it yet. Trust your instincts, and enjoy the ride…can’t wait for the next post! xoxo Boo Boo
Thank you, Boo Boo! : ) It is a fun ride and I know it will only get better and better or crazier and crazier…Love you too!
I’m betting your daughter is very lucky.
I feel the same sense of responsibility toward my girls. I’m always thinking of the example I am setting and wishing it were a better one!
Thanks! It’s easy to think we shouldn’t be so hard on ourselves, yet, as moms, we are. You’re already setting a great example by wanting to be brave — I hope I can steal a little of that from you for my own daughter. Thanks for reading!
I’ve nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award!
Happy New Year!
