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 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!
My son's are both color blind......so in a weird way this kind of makes sense ;-)
Funny
One time I fell asleep while reading, and when I woke up I was poking the page of the book with my finger like I was trying to use my phone haha!
I once double tapped a picture in a keyring to zoom in. Glad I'm not the only one on the phone way too much lol
Yea I have legit anxiety about one day accidentally saying "lol"

The best nights are lazy nights in. Blankets, wine, food, tv and someone (or not if you have a book) to enjoy it with! And preferably cold outside!

Yep. Right now "Quiet Time" consists of screaming Loud House songs by Luna Loud. (I love the songs and Luna, but it's def NOT quiet)

Don't look out my window is a for real thing. My youngest boys (10 and 12) still do it. It's like share the scenery already. You are going to see the other side anyways on the way back.
Um, wow. I have to be honest but I'm a bit agog that this is a real thing!! No criticism implied.

I do that all the time with my parents: e.g. my brother was eating a pack of smarties before breakfast and my dad caught him, told him no candy before breakfast. The next morning I catch my DAD eating a pack of smarties before breakfast. He looked pretty guilty when I told him off. LOL

Kid- (after interrupting 12 times) Mommy! I have something REALLY important I need to tell you! Me- What's that? Kid- I have a green crayon!

Yes! When they decide they all of a sudden need to eat their dinner because it’s bedtime, they eat. Because that’s what mommies do.
The formatting of the sentences across the panel as a big run-on sentence with weird stops really bothered me.
Totally not TMI if you have/live with/care for a small child...you'd understand. It helps people relate to unpleasant things that happen too.

Kids have energy right up until you give them a job/chore to do . . . then it's slow motion . . .
Eeeendless energy. REALLY endless. And then: "Mooooooo-ooooom? I'm soooooo excausted and tiiiiired." (Falls dramatically on the floor). She is 4.......

Gets me right in the feels. This is my home, neighborhood and culture and I feel helpless.
I think the concern here is how it relates to the Mass Shootings that have seemed to have a bit of an uptick. Not saying that kids playing pretend causes the mass shootings, but the words used (and type of gun depicted) is indicative... sigh.

Thank you so much for these! I read every single one, laughed so hard and could relate to almost everything. And I like your style!
#1 tip for cooking or baking with kids:. Mise en place! Don't let them ruin all of your supplies. Pre-measure into small dishes so they can't mess that up.
I have noticed that posts about children never change people's views on the topic. I read these comics and it affirms that I am glad I never had children, whereas someone who has or wants kids sees it as affirming their views.
No one is out to change you John. It's just comics.
