She’s One Chubscular Lady!
By michelle | March 2, 2010
My hubby and I were talking in bed one night, and he accused me of being a wimp.
I am no wimp!
I was induced with three of our babies and delivered them all without pain meds.
I can carry a 30 pound toddler and a 20 pound baby up a flight of stairs.
I go for walks with said baby in a Mei Tai while I push said toddler and her 46 pound brother in a stroller.
I’ve moved bookshelves, on my own, that were filled with books.
I open jars for my husband.
And, once, I moved our china cabinet, by myself, when it was full of our china.
No, I am not a wimp… but muscle??
Now that’s another story.
My husband, jokingly, defined my type of muscle as “chubscle”.
You may not see it, but underneath my lovely chubbiness is one “chubscular “lady!

For me, you could have stopped at “was induced and delivered without pain meds.” Seriously, there’s no room to talk after that. You are full of fortitude.

As working mums, our strength knows no bounds and we surely must possess the skills of many different crafts-women! It’s fun to reflect on everything we do and can also give us a feeling of some satisfaction…
