I've been drawing comics about life as a dad since my son was born three years ago. I use it as a visual journal (that I ultimately want to gift to my kid!), where I try to capture a moment a day.

When I started this journey of parenthood, I had no idea what I was doing. And after three years, I still sort of have no idea what I'm doing... but I do know parenting is as tough as it is rewarding.

So if you're parent, kudos to you! And if you're not a parent, well then tell your mom or dad kudos to them! There are my favorite moments of toddler logic at its finest. Enjoy!

If you're interested, here you can find my 30 Comics Of Why I Think Parenthood Is Not For The Faint Of Heart and 10 Moments When I Realized My Toddler Owns My Life here on Bored Panda.

    Watching can be much more relaxing then being asked to randomly organize items. 30 times in a row.

    This pretty much what we have to do with my nephew sometimes. It’s kinda funny he is be screeming bloody murder and as soon as mouth is open enough his mom just sticks some food in. Few spoonfuls and he realizes oh right I like this and eats happily rest of the meal.

    If you listen, or before they can speak watch carefully, you will realize how much self-awareness many children have, although it hardly is comparable to the self-awareness of an adult (particularly before they realize that they are not "child's name" but "I").
