I never wanted to be a housewife, cleaning, cooking and coffee mornings. How things have changed! I'm a 30 ish, married, English mum now living in Germany. The challenge: to become a less helpless housewife.

Guilt trip

I wander just how many other Mums feel guilty, a LOT. I know I often feel I haven't entertained my daughter enough or fed her the right things or taken her to all the singing/dancing/gymnastic groups.Number one guilt being living in Germany vs family being in England. I have to remind myself on a nearly daily basis of all the positives of living here; more time for being mum, husband & I are more relaxed, more time for our family to do what WE want, the joy of living on a farm, the fun of learning a new language (slowly) & exploring a new country and meeting new people. Alles gut!
