    The Unofficial CEO of the House

    Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind.

    Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind…

    Me:
    “So this whole house would actually stop functioning… if I didn’t exist?”

    Interesting.

    Because somehow—
    everyone knows their work…

    they’ll do their things perfectly,
    no confusion, no questions…

    but the moment it’s something slightly outside that—

    everything just quietly…
    automatically my department 😌

    No one says it out loud.
    No one assigns it.

    It just… lands with me.

    No meetings.
    No instructions.
    No appreciation emails.

    Just silent expectations…
    and very loud—
    “Mummmaaaa…”

    And the confidence? Unreal.

    Things will be kept randomly,
    forgotten instantly,
    not even looked for properly

    and yet—

    final conclusion:
    “Mumma must know.”

    Of course.
    Because I clearly have a secret map of the house
    that even Google doesn’t 😅

    And the real fun?

    If everything is running smoothly—
    normal.

    Like that’s just how it should be.

    But the second something slightly goes off—

    suddenly…
    “Why didn’t you tell?”

    Ah yes.
    Because I’m not just managing the present…
    I’m apparently responsible for the future too 💁‍♀️

    Motherhood:
    where you’re not the main character…

    you’re the entire system running in the background.

    Running the house… silently, efficiently, endlessly 😌💛
