I know we're nearing the season to be jolly, but my God it's hard work finding the time to get excited when I'm edging ever closer to a public breakdwon. I wish I was one of those mums who delighted in the festive season, but to be honest I feel nothing but increasing pressure every year. The kids' demands get ever more frequent, the invitations get all the more extravagant and the...

There's nothing I love more than a good gossip. At the time, that is. And then when the dust settles and I'm alone without a fellow gossip to encourage me, I berate myself for my pass-remarkable nature and inability to bite my tongue. But what bothers me most is the fact that my desire to gossip and pass comment on the lifestyle of other mums is likely born of a personal insecurity which I...

When myself and my husband became parents, we vowed to work as a team and promised never to go against each other's wishes when it came to our children. Well, I went and broke that promise, didn't I? And, I'll be honest, I don't even feel a little bit bad. I should feel guilty and I should question my loyalty to my husband, but I don't because in this instance, I know I'm...

Becoming a mother for the first time is an event that radically changes a woman’s life forever. But when you first start to adapt to your routine as a mother, you will realize that it is time to return to work. The anguish catches up with the even most organized ladies, since, from now on, you will have to leave your defenseless baby in the hands of others and devote much time to work. To...

These days the internet is awash with footage of adorable little ones nearly collapsing with excitement upon learning they're due to welcome a little brother or sister into their home. I actively seek out these videos if my newsfeed doesn't happen to feature one on a particular day because it gives me a serious case of the warm and fuzzies. While I wish I could say I'm simply reminding...

Today has been a nightmare. My daughter cried herself to sleep because she doesn’t want me to be a County Councillor anymore and my dad is in hospital waiting on an angiogram. I completely understand my little girl's stance – at least three nights a week I'm not home until 10.30pm, but my delayed return this evening had everything to do with my dad. He’s your typical GAA-loving...

It's a cliche, but I'm living it. Despite the fact it's considered top-notch material for decades worth of jokes from tired and jaded comedians, disliking your mother-in-law is far from funny. It's draining, heartwrenching and it can make you feel like you're failing on a number of levels - as a mum, as a wife and as a daughter-in-law. Seeking the approval of your partner's...

I lie alot. I hear myself do it on a daily basis and yet, I don't feel an ounce of guilt. While we tell our children that lying to people and deceiving family members is morally wrong and not something that is accepted under our roofs, that doesn't stop most of us mums doing it day in and day out. From white lies to Mummy fibs, there are very few of us who make it to bed-time without the...

Ireland has become a technical, modern country and I’m delighted to see so many people getting more high tech - it's great to be part of such a progressive island, and I'm so welcome to advancement. But three-, four-, five-year-old children with their own iPads, eyes glued to them in restaurants, at the park, in cars? I say, no way. Am I the only one living in the past where children...
