Not Beckham’s Day: 20 Hellish Moments in Mommy’s Life

The child is the source of chaos. Walking entropy. You never know what will happen the next moment.

We remembered situations after which every mother understands for sure: today is not a good day. Right from this moment. Have you ever had one?

– When you completely dressed the child in winter: tights, overalls, hat, scarf, gloves, and at that moment he urgently wanted to go to the toilet. Although five minutes ago he proudly refused to go there.

– When you are late with your child to the doctor, but after getting into the car, you realize that you forgot his documents at home.

– When already at the door, he declares that he does not like what he is wearing, and demands a different suit. Which, of course, is dirty.

– When you ask a child to get dressed quickly, but after ten minutes you find him in one pantyhose, but reading a book.

– When he needs to go to the toilet at the same time as you.

– When you have an important meeting, and your blouse has just been turned into a tablecloth for dolls.

– When you ripped out the apartment to shine and crystal crunch, and fifteen minutes later the child returned from the garden … And you can start cleaning from the beginning.

– When you drink tea and realize that the room is suspiciously quiet.

– When, after an evening swim, to get the child out of the bathroom, you need to swim across the English Channel on the floor.

– When the last cookie from the pack falls to the floor.

– When he refuses to fall asleep for an hour and a half, and then “turns off” 15 minutes before leaving the house.

– When first you persuade him to go for an hour, and then another hour – to go home.

– When he refuses to eat normal food, but to try an unfamiliar flower on the street – yes.

– When: “Look, Mommy” is, at best, a dead bird, and at worst, a lichen kitten.

– When everything was going well, but suddenly someone had time to press a button in the elevator before him …

– When giving birth is no match for the lego piece under your bare heel. In the morning. When you have not yet had time to wake up.

– When you find out about a kindergarten event / preset talk / family competition an hour before bedtime.

– When someone gives a toy that you already have.

– When on a walk you drag a scooter, a bicycle, a car on a string and a tired child.

– When in the evening you turn on cartoons for your child for five minutes to have a snack. And at this moment the grandmother comes with the words: “Have you been sitting at the TV all day again?”
