Happy Meme Monday: Real Life Parent

If you have never understood why parents are always so tired, groggy and sleepy, perhaps it wasn’t until you became a parent yourself that you understood the reasons why. There are so many things that change when you become a parent. I think it’s a given to know that there is less time for you and more time for the little one. There is less time to get yourself ready, you know those days where you look so put together, yeah, you’ll be lucky to be wearing something decent, you know the beautiful wind blowing curly hair – nope, the makeup days are also reduced to really close to none. And the only thing that’ll be going through your mind will be just wanting to squeeze in 5 more minutes of sleep time. Because who doesn’t appreciate a good 5 more minutes of sleep?!

Happy Meme Monday: The Sleepless Parent

This meme here really spoke volumes to my most inner soul! I can’t even tell you the last time I got a full 8 hours of sleep. You know that sleep where, no baby is crying or no 4 year is standing crying hysterically next to you because her sock came off and well, we can’t possibly sleep without socks! I mean, I may have got a few hours of sleep at some point in my many trips to the hospital, but then you know the nurses come in to wake you up just to ask, ‘if everything’s OK.’ So, there’s that. But yes, my life even more so now, as a blogger and now with my YouTube channel, the sleep just keeps taking a back seat. I still remember what people used to tell me when I was pregnant with my first baby, ‘when the baby sleeps, you sleep.’ Yes, yes, I still make it my life’s purpose to do that to this day – six kids in!

And here’s the thing, I know some parents will get their full nights sleep. So, if you’re one, let me just say this, when I grow up, I want to sleep just like you.

Happy Monday!
