Send a Supermum Postcard
How often are you told that you're doing a good job as a mum? Write a postcard to a mum you really admire, (someone you know or someone you don't) telling them why you think they're great. Click on the postcards below to read the messages.
We made Supermum Postcards at one of our Twitter Mums' Make Dates - read all about it here.
instructions
You could make a simple postcard yourself (collage, drawing, painting, whatever you fancy) or simply send a blank piece of card - it's the message that counts. Just tell them they're a supermum, or write more if you want to.
Before you add an address, take a photo of the front and the back and send it to us so we can share it here. Then post it...
Have a look through some examples here.

I make mail art all the time. These cards were made during a FeMail Art workshop at the Museum of Motherhood in New York City. I have been making mail art and sending it to my FeMail partner Karen, for seven years. You can see our work at www.femailart.com. The Museum of Motherhood is in New York City and is THE place for moms in Manhattan. @storyofmum followers would love what goes on at www.mommuseum.org. xo S
I think grandmothers should give themselves a big hug for a happy future full of love and laughs. Sending you a homemade postcard from www.storyomum.com project I am running with daughter. Sending you love and hugs. You are such an important- quietly important, core person in my becoming a mother and grandmother and woman!
From beginning (laptop, pen, paper on the ready) to the end result (drawing). My inspiration behind the owl, well, 1. We are on Twitter and the owl is their logo and owls like to TwitTwoo! Plus I love drawing owls. 2. There was talk about super mums and super powers so my postcard is dedicated to all the wonderful ladies out there who do it all. 3. Super mum's are sexy no matter what.
There simply is nothing like you! That's why I admire to be the mother and woman you are. If I can achieve just half of that measure I will be very happy. Love you
You are a Supermum because you keep trying, and you love, and are constantly open to learning. You are kind and thoughtful, beautiful and wise, and you make AMAZING chocolate brownies. With lots of love xxxx
Hiding under my Cupcake is my SuperMum!

For a new friend who I have recently met who has just had a little boy:
So wonderful to meet your little bundle of joy. Don't ever doubt yourself, being a mum is so hard but you are doing a fantastic job. I am so proud of you and you should be proud of yourself too.
I am so happy to be sharing this road of motherhood with you.
Love and hugs for you and your gorgeous boy.
