Being an adoptive Mum is...
...having to buy multi-vitamins to help stem the tide of colds and illnesses because of the poor diet you are on, which can only oh so slowly be tweaked because otherwise the children would flip - or have nothing to eat!

...sighing that your children can never seem to finish off their mousses and so of course you have to finish off all three of them for them. BUT YOU DON'T LIKE CHOCOLATE MOUSSE! ;)

...thinking that alphabetti spaghetti was a good idea, to get them interested in eating pasta, helping them to learn their letters and make the food exciting. Of course then they pick out each individual letter and say "oh look mummy i just found an A" "oh look mummy i just found an R" "oh look mummy...." Imagine that every few seconds times two children lol

...finally realising that the mealtime strategy that you have carefully honed with your oldest one over the last seven months will never work for middlie and you have got to start all over again. Then you suddenly wonder whether either strategy will work for littlie or whether you have to start all over again all over again!

Being an adoptive Mum is...
...having a typical 30 minutes multi-tasking in the afternoon: keeping an eye on the children, refereeing squabbles, changing nappies, writing shopping lists, supervising loo trips, talking to social workers, confiscating toys - all whilst cooking the tea!
Being an adoptive Mum is...
...having to eat what they eat or cook five different meals three times a day!
