By Lindsay Jane Hunter
I see you there
I see your tired eyes
and spaced out stare
I see you dig deep
to find the energy to care
I see you
muddling through
questioning choices
and everything you do
I see that you are amazing
I see the strength
you hold
I see you sighing deeply
when the bedtime story’s told
I see you feeling lonely
and needing to be held
I see that you are busy
being mum to someone else
And I see that you also need
some mothering yourself
So I want to say
that you are an
incredible mum
That’s what your kids
would say
