Since I’m a mom of 3 children, I never run out of inspiration, and I made a comic every single day for most of the year. It’s fun to capture the good moments, but it also helps me to see the humor in struggles that come with parenting a 13, 10 and 4-year-old.

I share all of them on Patreon and a selection on Instagram and Facebook. It’s been wonderful to see that so many parents have similar experiences. Laughing about it with others has made my year so much better!

Question everything. Just like a four year-old. Curiosity is never wrong!

My daughter asks these same questions ALL THE TIME! I would say it's half my fault for convincing her that I'm a mind reader.

My kids embarrassed me when we crossed the border from Scotland to England! We used the service rest rooms and there were coloured tiles. My kids both said in front of everyone "wow mum they have colour down here) I wanted to run away!

    Kids have energy right up until you give them a job/chore to do . . . then it's slow motion . . .

    Yup... I've been there. I now assign a chore for every punishment, the chore fits the crime. Way better to take something off my list than to punish myself!!
