How Many Of These Can You Relate to?
- Waiting to get out on a date night with your husband just to hold hands and speak without being interrupted, but then ending up talking about your children 90% of the time.
- Telling your children you love them ‘all the same’, but in your head, secretly having a favourite!
- When everything begins to sound like it’s a baby crying. A bird in the distance, one of your kid’s toys being activated…
- Being secretly happy when one of those ‘noisy toys’ of your child’s breaks and you think, YIPPEE!
- Being SO happy your kids are finally in bed, then flicking through photos and videos of your kids on your phone thinking just how adorable they are.
- Saying, “I am going to count to three. ONE…TWO…” but you never actually hit three
- Thinking, “I’ll call that friend now, since my kids are being quiet”, and within 5 seconds of picking up the phone there is turmoil.
- Singing your heart out while driving. After all, your children are the most non-judgmental audience ever!
- Hiding when you hear your children approaching saying “where’s MUM”, secretly hoping they may not find you, giving you 5 minutes of peace.
- Using your phone in the toilet, even if you don’t have to go, simply so your kids can’t get to you.
- Not realizing JUST. HOW. TIRED. YOU. ARE until you lie on that bed and your head hits that pillow!
