I feel like “back in my day you couldn’t skip the ads” is the millennial equivalent of “back in my day we had to walk to school in the snow up hill both ways”
Me: *making a sandwich for myself*
My kid, annoyed: I don’t WANT a sandwich mom
Me: well good news, this isn’t for you
Anyway, she ate half my sandwich.
I slept for 5 hours last night and had a really long day.
Could I go to bed right now? Yes, absolutely
Am I staying up to enjoy silence and no one touching me? Yes, absolutely.
Self care when you have young kids has many different forms. This is mine. I need time to be me.
Idk who needs to hear this today but be kind and patient with yourself, your feelings are valid and you don't need to apologize for them 🌞❤️
Thanks, @toriphantom
If we tell our kids that they won’t get in trouble if they tell the truth, but discipline them when we know the truth. They are more likely to lie. It’s a cycle we can break.
