Today marks the first instalment of the Girl Tribe Tales! A collection of stories and even poems from The Girl Tribe. It’s a celebration of womanhood, motherhood and all the joys, trials and tribulations that come with being a woman.
First off we have this fabulous poem from Jude. A little ode to her son 😍 that made me laugh so much I let out a little wee.
Baby, why don’t you sleep?
Sometimes I want to weep.
I’m so tired why aren’t you?
When will you sleep the whole night through?
6 months of so many wake ups a night,
And yes I look at you and feel delight,
And yes I love you more than words can say,
And yes I treasure every day,
And yes I even love your poo sick and farts,
And yes I can’t bear for us to be apart,
And yes you are the best best prize,
But jeez I’ve got big bin bags under my eyes.
Without concealer and mascara I’d cause people fear,
And I’ve aged about 2 decades in half a year.
If you slept, I’d love you as much as I love you every bit,
But wouldn’t it be good to have a mummy that doesn’t look like shit?
So a good night sleep would be the cherry on the cake,
Some glorious sleep from ten until eight.
Love mummy! xx
