15 Comics That Prove the World Needs to Have a Nobel Prize for Motherhood

Social media is full of pics of ideal moms who are wearing high heels and who have perfect shiny hair. They confidently hold their babies in their arms and smile widely. We hear from everywhere that kids are the ultimate joy of our lives, and that every woman should experience the joy of being a mother. At the same time, very few people say that being a mother is actually not that easy. The comics of an illustrator named Lucy Scott, who just recently had a daughter and experienced the whole range of parental feelings, will tell all the truths about the first year of motherhood.
