Agree with me or not, But You will find all sorts of women or mums
at school bus stop waiting for the bus to arrive and waiting to cuddle with
their tired son/daughter. What fascinates me more is the different
individuality of all these mums and how different everyone is from one another,
although everyone is a SAHM and is raising their kids exceptionally well.
Though I and my
husband has shared our duties well I get up in the morning early and get my kid
ready and go to drop him at the bus stop to board his school bus. And it’s my
husband's duty to go and pick him up in the afternoon (He leaves for office
late afternoon). Today when my husband had to leave for office a little early
than usual, it was my turn to pick up our son at the bus stop. And I got to
meet all the mums and be a part of their gossip talks. And I could easily
differentiate between all kinds of mum existing in this world (If not all, at
least some of them, No offence to anyone). Here the list goes:
1) My Son knows it
all Mum: I can’t stop smiling when I write this and trust me she is the
inspiration for this article. She goes like: My son knows all the poems and
narrates wonderful stories in both the languages (Hindi and English). We were
discussing an upcoming workshop on phonetics and here she added: "My son
knows it all. He doesn’t need to go to these kinds of workshops and
classes"
I just wonder if
she is overconfident Mum or she has an exceptionally well doing son who knows
it all.
2) Ever
Complaining Mum: You will find her complaining on all topics and is never
satisfied by anything and at home she is fed up of maid problems and nagging
husband and on the other end she will always be wondering how teachers treat
her child at school.
3) Always in Hurry
Mum: This kind of mum you will meet often. She is juggling a lot of work single
handedly and is always trying to compete with deadlines. She is rarely a part
of everyday gossips as she is seen running towards the bus stop and always
reaches when bus has already dropped the kids.
4) Extremely
sincere and concerned Mum: Whenever you are seeking an advice, go to her and
she will be there with a bag of advice for you and by the time school bus
arrives, she would have given you a lot of solutions to your problems along
with a lot of extra advice which you actually don’t need. :) Read on to how be a happy Mum
5) All messy Mum:
This is one of my favorite categories. You will see a lady figure in her
regular pajamas and a T-shirt with hair tied up in a bun. That’s the way she
is. A relaxed Mom with a lot of self confidence and a way to go. She will be
very friendly and you will find her having a hearty laugh with fellow mums.
6) Fashionable
Mum: You will find this Mum all opposite of the last category. She is always
nicely dressed with all the makeup put up on her face, Hair nicely done and
matching jewellery. She is the attraction of the group and other mums envy her
on how she manages to find time to stay so dressed up all the time when they
are simply running here and there juggling everyday work.
And then I come
back home and share all this with my hubby very excitedly and gets a reply: that’s
the way it is everyday :)
