The two sides of Mum

Sian Syvret - 21 Mar 16

So far my blogs have consisted of some sort of “horror” stories of my 2 kiddies and their behaviour antics. They are little horrors the majority of the time, but… On those odd occasions, I am so proud that my 2 beautiful kiddies, know how to talk to people, and to be kind, remember their manners, and respect other people’s things and homes. Other than that, what more could I possibly want? Besides, 2 well behaved kids all the time would be boring, wouldn’t it?! 😝 Haha.

So… Now a look into my relationship.

I have been with my partner for a long time. We weren’t childhood sweethearts. Actually met him through a friend at a piss up, and things turned from there, it went from casual “friends with benefits”, to a relationship. Obviously had our ups and downs, there was a few slags to get through. In what relationship isn’t. He was young, and in the army, a player, a typical squaddy, so of course I had sour faced jealous girls to deal with. Not a problem, got through that, he chose ME! Why?? Haha, cause I’m funny, caring, kind, loyal, a good person, and the obvious, beautiful! Haha.

We’re not very similar, our likes are totally different. He likes himself, I don’t! Haha.

He listens to rock music, I don’t like head banging headache music, can’t stand it. I love my R&B music. He doesn’t. I want to get married, he does not. This has set off all sorts of arguments between us, none that I have won as the ring is still not on my finger, lol. I will keep trying with my not so subtle hints. Isn’t that the path a steady relationship goes down, marriage? Not in his eyes. You don’t need a ring on your finger and a piece of paper to commit to each other. His thoughts, not mine.

We’re in sync with each other, and I love that. He knows when something’s wrong without me even saying, puts up with my moods, and Oh my god are they moods. So unpredictable at times aswel, kitchen utensils get chucked, saucepans get dented, chopping boards get broke. Butter tubs go flying. There is no domestic violence in the house, this is just 1 of my extreme moods, bought on by my depression that my partner has to deal with. Moods where I can’t escape my own head, and it gets too much. This is not something that happens all the time. Nor when the kids are around. As in my previous blog, I’m controlling my depression. My partner steps up when he needs too, and that’s another reason why I love him.

He sticks by me through everything. We have got through some really tough times together, tough times that were sent to break us, but didn’t. For those reasons it is that I am thankful for what I have with my partner. My beautiful children we have, and an amazing life together. We’re not well off, just like every other young couple we struggle at times. That’s the way it is, one day it won’t always be like that. One day I’ll have a mansion, a posh fast car, and a field for a garden for all my animals.. In my dreams, lol. A girl can dream can’t she?

I know he won’t read this, as I like to go on and write essays, as he says, lol. But this is a reminder to him that even though I have my bitchy days where everything is his fault, or for not picking up his dirty laundry, and washing his plates, I love him despite all that, and he is my rock ❤️
