Mum shows difference between siblings in these cute comics

C'mon mums don't try to deny it- there will always be a massive difference between your first and second born. 

Artist and mum-of-two Weng Chen knows this all too well. The founder of Messy Cow Comics, she uses art to describe the difference between babies one and two- they're both hilarious and accurate. 

Writing on her Facebook, Chen says that her journey into motherhood is her biggest inspiration.  

"The biggest joy came with the realisation of being responsible for another human being, which put me in constant self-doubt, anxiety, and panic. I struggled to balance motherhood and work, which I found was a battle that's doomed to fail. In the process of making all the difficult decisions and seeking a peace of mind, I've been learning, changing and growing every day, together with my children."

As an introvert, Chen continued to say that she finds comfort in drawing her feelings, and hopes that other mothers can relate. 

"I want to make things that tell the truth. I want to make things that are close to my heart.

"I want to make things that after they are grown, my children will read and laugh, and they will understand who I am. I want to share my stories to connect with people."
