Oh, the things we do for our children…
There aren’t enough fingers on our hands to count the many sacrifices
that we, as parents, make on a daily basis.
Most of the time, the choices we make are for the benefit of our little ones. But, you’d be kidding yourself if you don’t think we do things for the benefit of ourselves, too. It’s not selfish. It’s just necessary to maintain any ounce of sanity that we still have remaining!
We all, at some point, will go into survival mode….
trying with all our might to make it through the day.
We will make choices we regret, aren’t proud of,
or simply wish had played out differently.
Remember that….
when you are sleep deprived
OR
haven’t eaten a solid meal all day
OR
never got around to showering
OR
have loads of laundry piled to the ceiling
OR
haven’t collected your mail in days
OR
have loads of laundry piled to the ceiling
OR
haven’t collected your mail in days
OR
endured your fair share of temper tantrums and meltdowns
OR
are just AT. YOUR. WITS. END…..
you just might become a little unreasonable in your decision making.
All logic seems to go out the window. Goodbye rational thinking!
Sometimes, as a last resort, you begin to make decisions like the one this dad made in the video below. I’m not going to lie…I may have done the exact same thing this poor dad did. I can empathize. There are moments in time when you would do just about ANYTHING to calm your kid and get that extra hour of sleep. Unfortunately, he had to learn the hard way.
HAPPY HUMP DAY, FOLKS….
I hope this provides a little bit of laughter to get you through the day,
as it certainly did for me!
Eventually….I think I would have relented and just thrown in the towel.
Oh, the things we do for our children…
