Mums that rock by Oreke

My best friend single mom of two with amazing superwoman strength and endless love. Mom to Jayden and Liyah. Wish I had half her courage. xx

Motherhood Philosophy: children are a blessing from God. Caring for them and seeing them grow I feel is Gods way of telling mothers and fathers that He loves us even more than we can ever love our children. Children are the best gift.

Favourite food for kids – Liyah loves African food especially Eba and okoro
Jayden loves Oriental food

Where do you like to shop for your kids- Debenhams and Next for Jayden
H&M  and M&S for Liyah .

My kids are very close but they like different things the one place they always agree on going to is Harrods toy department

Mothers That Rock by Dunja

I think I’m in love with Cate Blanchett. If I had to name one person, other than my parents, who inspire me, it has got to be Cate. She’s raising four kids without a nanny, co runs a theather company with her husband of 17 years, acts full time, and always makes sure she’s never away from her children for more than 6 days, taking them on shoots with her during their school holidays.
I also very much admire her for speaking out against mothers who judge others’ style of parenting. Cate says she likes to parent her kids like noone is watching. After all, if uyou’re succeeding as a parent, it’s nobody’s business how you’re doing it!
Here’s a couple of beautiful quotes I found from Cate on children:

– Children certainly teach one about compromise. I think before having children the idea of compromise rubbed shoulders with weakness or deception in some way

– Children are spirited, passionate, political, demanding. They are also heartbreaking.They constantly extend parents and so parents are constantly confronted with their failures, don’t you think? I’d rather presently live life this way than not.
