Your writing is inspirational an...Oh My Chantelle,<br /> Your writing is inspirational and has left me in tears!<br />When my 3rd child was diagnosed with autism (his older bother is too), I felt like my whole entire world fell apart and after I'd picked myself back up again- I'd forgotten what life was like in the "typical" world.<br />You described my feelings perfectly and I am one of the women that you are truly helping and speaking to. <br />I SO want to stop caring what other think and get on with it but IT"S SO HARD!!!!<br />I admire you and want to comment on every single one of your posts but I don't want you to think I'm stalking you lol!<br />Fi :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3917465509527321065.post-43170311305692070772010-05-26T23:28:31.671+10:002010-05-26T23:28:31.671+10:00Chantelle - thanks you for telling it "like i...Chantelle - thanks you for telling it "like it is". I have never crossed into your shipping lane before and so it's nice to meet you. <br /><br />I am also a Sunny Mummy fan - and picked up your blog tonight via her FB post. I am also as a follower of other feel-good mummy bloggers, and I love their joyousness and perkiness(!!). But so often when I am feeling like the bottom of the heap, hearing a chirpy mums blog - apparently someone with it all together - delivers another blow of self doubt and insecurity to my already shaky foundations. <br /><br />I have been longing to read a post with your honesty. Not just to help me feel "ok" about my down days (of which there can be many), but to know that we haven't all turned into the glossy souls that the weekly magazines tell us we should be.<br /><br />Mothering is so often noted as the hardest job, but it is usually said as a quick comment on the way to making another point. Your post shows us in all your honesty and self analysis that it is not just the physical task and demands of mothering that make it the hardest job, it's the parts of us that HAVE to fall by the wayside that leave us exposed, vulnerable, unsure and insecure. Added to that is the fact that many of us are juggling children who fit outside of the parenting guide-type child. <br /><br />Chantelle will gladly offer you some extra rowing strokes, and perhaps even a chug of an outboard motor by way of encouragement and enormous thanks. For lifting the lid on yourself and showing us what a beautiful, fragile, honest, loving, caring and committed woman you are. The world needs more like you :) <br /><br />God bless you in your journey <3<br /><br />Rose <br />Mum to 4, and person in her own right.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00014878343704510307noreply@blogger.com
