@the.english.family: As we head into the final few days of the summer holidays, I know I’m not the only mum who’s started thinking "Have we done enough?" 🥺 Social media can make it feel like every day needs to be an adventure. Days out, holidays, activities, expensive attractions and before you know it you’re feeling guilty because your summer didn’t look like everyone else’s. But please remember Memories don’t have to cost money! Playing in the garden. Going to the park. A trip to the library. Popping round to see family. Playing games at home. Free days out. Holiday clubs. Watching films in your pyjamas. Even those completely chaotic days where you did absolutely nothing. It ALL counts. Your children don’t need you to entertain them every second of every day. They don’t need an Instagram worthy summer. So if you’re looking back at the summer and thinking you haven’t done enough I promise YOU HAVE! So don't let that mum guilt creep in! #MumGuilt #MotherhoodUnfiltered #RealMotherhood #SummerHolidays #Honestmums UK essex honest mum real motherhood actual homes with kids
