I have been thinking of the amount of people that have written, pitched, made a film about the bond of Mother and Daughter lately. Its all known how powerful a bond of a Mother and child can be. Whether its some kind of invisible cord made by a Planceta that makes this so strong and unconditional.
Yet, I never have written one or even thought to write one. Yeh, you may read and think so what? why should this bother you? I think it should, because I am myself a mother of two children. From the minute I wake up, forget the toilet routine. Its the kids room I want to see to first. And before I go to bed, I want to see their sleepy faces (oh how angelic beautiful children look when they asleep. ) Their bodies twisted against the blankets BUT never on top of them. If anything, I am a proud big headed mother. I believe I have done well, taught them to express freely. Encourage them to be the top dog, yet if it all fails remind them that Practice make perfect. I can go on and on about this, and to think deeply of my bond with my children has already created a lump in my throat.
So the question is now, Kat so why haven't you written anything about it? For me the bond is so powerful, I wasn't ready to write about it. I raised my kids full time for their first 4 years. And remembering how unsociable I was when back to the real word. Honestly whoever I met it was, My kids, My son, My Daughter and Calpol - Strawberry flavour. Then coming back home thinking, "get a grip, those other people life does not evolve around children" I wanted to write and make films about other peoples lives and understand their state of mind. And also, making a film based upon the bond of a mother and child was too close to home.
But I'm ready now.
I enjoyed reading that. x
