I guess somewhere deep down inside of me I've always known. But I just didn't know what to do with those feelings. How to handle them, what it all might mean. But then I read this article, and everything just fell into place. I read about this type of mother called the Yummy Mummy, and...
I'm trying to get my head around the importance of social media, but to be frank: I'm struggling. I just don't find it interesting to read tweets like: 'Just had my cup of coffee. It was gooood.'
