Jazmyne Futrell, a 31-year-old blogger, has become an internet sensation after a photo of her multitasking as a mom of four went viral. In the photo, she is seen tending to her 7-year-old son’s homework, while her 5-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son play at her feet, and her 7-month-old baby nurses. All the while, she is cooking dinner.
Mom Truth
Jazmyne staged the photo to showcase the realities of motherhood, aiming to dispel the illusion of perfect parenting that is often portrayed on social media. She admits that the response to the photo has been mixed, but her message is clear – motherhood is a demanding, multitasking role.
No one should be glorified for taking care of their own kids
After battling postpartum depression, Jazmyne turned to blogging to share her experiences and provide support for other moms. She is determined to show the raw and real side of motherhood, and hopes to encourage other mothers who may be struggling.
