Parenting is one of those things that, more and more, we’re expected to do on our own – even though back in the day, parenting was definitely a group project and literally everyone was better for it.
These 10 posts will likely make you feel less alone in your struggles – and hopefully make you feel like laughing at them, too.
Fingers crossed!
10. She followed directions.
And also she’s winning at life.
Lost my temper with my daughter because she wouldn't get dressed, and told her she couldn't come downstairs until she'd changed out of her pyjamas. She's just changed into ANOTHER PAIR OF PYJAMAS.

9. It’s a mask, it covers her face.
Done and done.
I told my daughter to grab her mask so we can go to the store. This was the mask she grabbed. pic.twitter.com/JQdRZltCSv

4. Amazing is one word for it.
That kid is obviously going places.
My daughter had a Zoom class yesterday. The teacher's internet went out, so one of the kids was made the default host. He muted everyone, pretended to teach the class, and then just said "fart" over and over until the teacher was able to join back. It was amazing.

3. This one is an artist.
It’s in her little heart.
Y’all my daughter asked why we grow hair on our private parts and I was like “idk baby that’s a good question” & she sits on my bed dead serious & goes “maybe it was just God adding little details” 🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

1. Before and after coffee.
Or drop-off mom vs. pick-up mom.
Kid in my son’s class explained to me that she was sure he has two moms because he has “the pretty mom and the other mom.” She described each to me in some detail.
Reader, both are me.
