An Homage to all the Mothers Out There; A Super Mothers’ Day

​Our lives tend to be quite difficult at times, but luckily there’s always mum to go to. Weather to boast our achievements, or to talk about what’s troubling us, we have a real-life superhero, watching over us… we have ‘Super Mum’.

I know how it looks, mums have no super powers, and although she is our hero, but the ‘super’ term is a bit too much to use with ‘mum’. But you know what, she might not be able to levitate or shoot lasers from her eyes like a son of Krypton, but she sure does fly from one thing to another, just to see us happy and her eyes hit us with love and passion. She might not have the weight lifting ability of an incredible green beast, but she sure stays strong through troubled times, strong enough to drive her family forward. 

​Our mums are no genius-billionaire-philanthropist, but she’s smart enough and full of wisdom and that’s we constantly bug her with all our questions and missing stuff. She might not wield a magical hammer or command thunder like an Asgardian god, (though admittingly, that would be cool), but mum’s a natural with all those kitchen tools, and let’s face it, she calms the thunder if it scares the poo out of the little ones. She might not shoot webs from her wrists and web sling around the house, but mum is the one that takes webs down, and make sure our home is spotless.

​Mums don’t need the tacky unbreakable shield of a war hero, or the glowing whip of a tribal women to protect us. So yeah, mums are all around superheroes, ready to do anything for her family. Pity she doesn’t owe a bat cape, tough surprisingly, some of her old clothes from the 80's do come close… but we love her no matter what her wardrobe’s full of.
​
So, for all those mums out there and up there, we wish you a Super Mother’s Day.
