I love that cute married thing we do when we bicker over who gets to shovel the snow, because the other person has to watch the kids.

My, how things have changed.
I lost my patience. I think it's under the couch cushions next to my kids' socks, chip crumbs, and my temper I lost earlier.

•60% kids' clothes
•20% kids' toys
•10% kids' miscellaneous
•9.9% mom's stuff
•.1% dad's stuff
Without kids I would have never known the joy of cleaning a spilled bottle of glue out of a backpack at 6 AM.

My kids were late to school. I signed 'em in with the reason: DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME STINKS! (Just the facts)

Not sure what happened here, but that toy looks a little freaked out if you ask me. pic.twitter.com/az5MxfzFWH

Gee I wonder why we're always sick I say as one kid has her bare feet in her mouth and the other one is licking the floor.

90% of parenting is doing just enough to keep other parents from judging you.

You're welcome.
Just got my ass handed to me by my kid's 2nd grade math homework.

Me: Maybe you should pack your own lunch
6: *packs 28 Oreos*
Me: Maybe I should pack your lunch
Listening to a 4yo play with their little sibling is what I imagine a future dictator sounds like at that age.
— MyMomologue (@MyMomologue) March 15, 2017
Being a SAHM allows me to do the fun things. For example, today I spent the day playing hide and seek.... with socks and car keys.
