I just want my child to see a real mom

Yes, that's the feeling.

When I gave birth to Tinker Bell,

(Tinker Bell is my son, just turned 5 years old)

I can feel it clearly.

It's not just me who gave Tinker Bell life,

He also brought me a new life,

Changed me.

From that day on, I was no longer myself,

Everything I do, every decision I make,

I think about how he feels.

He became a part of my life,

I also became a part of him.

This book,

Evoked all the memories of my life with my baby on maternity leave.

On the book cover,

A big-headed baby holding a magnifying glass,

Seriously,

Seriously studying something,

The subject of this study is the mother.

It is a book that is completely based on the child's point of view,

Tell it in the tone of a child

The "Mom's Picture Book" of Mom's Life.

It's magical,

Every plot in the book

All reflect my life,

So I corresponded to these episodes one by one:

Just gave birth to Tinker Bell,

I really can't "gracefully" appear in front of him,

However, I think,

What if my hair is oily and my eyes are swollen?

You little thing, you don't want to listen to me yet.

When eating,

My appetite and mood,

It all depends on how much Tinker bell eats.

When my mom came,

I'm going to quickly turn back into a child,

If you can be lazy, you can be lazy, and if you can be spoiled, you can be spoiled.

Lack of sleep was my most painful experience,

Because Tinker Bells every 2-3 hours

Just have to be fed once,

I feel sleepy all the time,

And Tinker Bell is like a grinding spirit,

Always by my side bothering me.

Because the child can't see me for a moment,

It's going to scream , " whoop whoa ,

Even go to the toilet,

I'm going to hold The Little Tinker bell together, too,

He's a little older.

Just sit next to me and "spy" on me all the time.

My happiest time is when I unravel the courier,

Tinker Bell is like my little detective,

Be sure to look for treasures in every box.

At the end of the book,

The big head baby became so big, bigger than mom,

She carefully observed,

Or more like guarding mom,

Perhaps, in the child's heart,

Moms are the ones they want to protect the most.

After reading the story, I contacted the editor,

Tell her that I cried...

Because, this mom is a real mom,

This mom is me.

Later, the editor told me that the author, Kwon Ting-hyun, is about the same age as us and is also a "post-80s" who created this book in the three years after giving birth to her first baby. The book also won the Korea Publishing Culture Award (this award was won by Bai Heina and Susie Lee), and the judges commented on the book as follows:

"In this book, the author creatively reinvents 'motherhood', and the real picture rejects the myth of motherhood, which can be seen as a contemporary awakening."

At the award ceremony, the author Kwon Young-hyun and the president of Korea Daily took a group photo

Author Quan Tingwei once said: "Mother is a relatively private topic, books are a relatively public space, and there has been no reason to present such a private topic to the book." And looking back on that fragile time in the past, it is not very comfortable, so it is always repeated between turning it out and giving up. And I'm also afraid that after disclosing my motherhood, being an author will have a lot of limitations. But in the end, the mentality of 'should say it' overcame the idea of 'not worth saying', which is why the book was published. ”

Yuan Xiaofeng, an outstanding principal, children's literature writer and children's reading promoter, said this after reading "My Mother" -

"My Mom" in the form of a picture book, let us read a lot of mother's stories from the mother's daily life, I look forward to the fathers can read this book with their children, can understand and understand the mother more deeply, can give the mother more care and help.

I think the author hopes that through this book, children can see and remember a real mother, a mother who is very hard to become a mother, but it is inevitable that she is not perfect.

Rather than telling Tinkering what a great mom I am, I'd rather let him see and remember a most authentic mom.
