Genies use magic, not miracles!
I found a lamp today. When I rubbed it, out popped a genie who said he would grant me 3 wishes.
I wished for 1) an uninterrupted shower, 2) to go to the bathroom by myself and 3) 8 hours of sleep, because I'm a tired mom.
He told me the wishes had to be realistic.— MommyingHard (@MommyingHard) January 20, 2023
Same, honestly.
My kid said her favorite subject in school is lunch and I'm so happy to finally figure out what she got from me

My 5yo: How long will dinner take?

Thoughts and prayers.
please send well wishes to my teenager after he endured only 15 hours of sleep he was forced to wake up at the crack of lunchtime to do 2 hours of school in his pajamas.

Call it like it is.
Apparently referring to a Girl Scout as your ‘cookie plug’ just gets you dirty looks outside the grocery store

Things have changed.
Before kids: *switches between designer hand bags to match outfit daily*
After kids: *uses the same over-sized back pack full of crushed teddy grahams, hot wheels, crumb-filled diapers, restaurant crayons, 8 pairs of socks for some reason, and was that a banana at one point?*— kindminds_smarthearts (@kindminds_) January 11, 2023
Of course.
me, on a business trip calling my kids on my last night: how was your day?
6: it was good, but tomorrow is going to be great!
me: aw, because I’m coming home?
6: because it’s “dress like a winter animal day”— mom mom mom mom mom (@notmythirdrodeo) January 20, 2023

Me, 10 years ago: Drinks on me!
Me, now: I’m not paying that for eggs.— Jessie (@mommajessiec) January 18, 2023
"Gentle parenting!"

Now that's scary stuff.
You can't scare me. You're not my daughter being weaned off her pacifier.
