Moments in Motherhood
In light of Mother’s Day just around the corner, we asked some of the girls in the office about their favourite memories with their Mums & their favourite moments about being a Mum!
Rae, Business Development Manager
What is your favourite memory with your Mum?
Coming home from school and smelling fresh baked cookies. My Mum was always there after school for me right through school and University and I could always talk to her. I still do.
What are the best “Words of Wisdom” she passed down to you?
Never go to sleep on an argument. I live this every day.
What has surprised you most about being a Mum?
That you can be confident about many things in your life, but when it comes to being a good Mum you always feel like you are stuffing it up!
What has been your most rewarding moment as a Mum?
When I see my girls be kind to others and think kindly about others. That always makes me the most proud of who they are becoming.
Any advice for new Mums out there?
We are all winging it. Ask for help and advice but always listen to your own instincts. They are always right!
