Motherhood is an incredible phase, but it comes with its own set of difficulties. Raising kids is accordingly a fulfilling opportunity that entails unquantifiable sacrifices. A lot of the challenges faced by moms go unsaid as most shy away from discussing the toughest parts of parenthood. But artist Paula Kaka reached a decision to open up about the good and bad aspects of having kids through her comics hinged on motherhood. In her four panels or fewer comics, Paula highlights the extent of emotions that runs through her amid taking care of kids.

Some of the illustrations also capture her frustrations but greatly demonstrates how much she cares for her kids despite their trouble-making. Paula, who is also known as Common Wild is a mom to children ages one and four and often feels stretched thin with the inevitable responsibilities. Having studied landscape architecture, Paula only started illustrating after going on maternity leave with her first child. Nevertheless, we’ve compiled her recently released to show you another side to motherhood. Enjoy!
