Hello ! My name is Yllya, I'm a french freelance illustrator and comic artist, and I'm the mother of a 3 years old little girl.
Last year, and somewhat by chance, I started a webcomic on Instagram about my family life. We were coming back home after daycare and we got stuck in the elevator of our building. I was panicked cause I'm a bit claustrophobic, but my daughter seems to think it was some kind of game, and my husband stayed stoic like he usually does. Later, when we finally could get out, I thought that it was a funny story and that I could turn it into a comic. I drew it, and posted it on Instagram and people seems to like it. A few weeks later, I draw another one after a conversation with my husband about our daughter's hair. And people liked it too. So started a webcomic.
Family and parenting are a source of infinite inspiration.
All comics are based on a real story with A LOT of caricatures. The fun fact is there is always somebody to take it at face value.
I'm having a lot of fun drawing this comic and I hope that you'll have a lot of fun too by reading it!

My mother used to say that she had 3 daughters and one son (talking about my father). By that time I thought she was talking about all the housework we gave her. Now grown up, with a man who's doing his share of chores, I'm mother of two: I have one daughter and two sons. XD

When I was 10, 40 years ago, I was eager to "go to sleep" - in fact, to read under the blanket, with a flashlight, till midnight. Our son is twelve and he still doesn't know this trick!

Omg that's how it is with my daughter! She hates junk food and all sweets. I'm always super excited for junk food and try to share with her, and she's just like "no." She definitely didn't get that from her parents lol

So many of you call pizza junk food. It isn't. I can be a complete meal in one slice -- cheese (protein, dairy), crust (bread/carbs), vegetables like broccoli or spinach, various meats. I have made pizzas with nothing but veg, sauce, and cheese. Nothing wrong with it.
Marysia Jawłowska 8 years ago
Yeah, teach your kids that junk food is the ultimate celebration, then actively hate fat people and make their life miserable.

Sometimes the roles are reversed for the parents and sometimes it doesn't matter if it is a girl or a boy.

My nearly 4 wore his hood from last winter to now, whatever the weather. Because he was a knight so he needed a helm. I just sewed him a snood. Now, he wears his hood plus his snood even when the weather doesn't require it. Because he is a ninja.

Literally me! My mum would put me in 6 or so layers of clothes to go to school! Whereas other students would literally just have the one layer that is their school shirt.

Not the scarf then you won't have anything to grab onto to pull back up.

My mum got her revenge for my lack of cooperation when she was dressing me as a child.... she wanted to go on the back of my motorbike. One piece waterproof suit and the "starfish" pose... "Dress me!"

At least she made it to the potty. Mine worn nappies till he was 3 years old. As soon as he turned 4 I said no more, "I can't buy nappies for a 4 year old and a baby. I will wake you up in the middle of the night to go wee wee. And I will take all your toys away for a week". He still misses the potty though, I don't know how

I did this over the toilet when I was 7, then again when I was 9. first time made a small mess, second time went in perfectly

Why not? It's called human anatomy, it's natural. And maybe she goes to a kindergarten where they have an all gender bathroom? Besides, the artist is French and they can be quite progressive.

J’adore vos histoires et les dessins sont très réussis. Et bien que je comprenne l’intérêt de les éditer en anglais, ce serait utile de les faire relire par un-e vrai-e anglophone avant leur publication pour corriger la conjugaison notamment... (C’est "cheer up" sans "s")

I would make it look like I got bored then "try" to go swimming alone. Fear tactic always gets parents up. My mom never caught on either.

Whenever you buy new pillows, one of your little ones will get sick and throw-up on them. Never fails.

She looks and is acting like a Jiangshi (Chinese Hopping Vampire...look it up). Think Hsien-Ko from Dark Stalkers.

Nice. Normally I don´t like those "everyday" comics, but this one I enjoyed. It was funny, smart and not over-cute.

Ads for "Hot Russian Singles"... really, Bored Panda? Is this a porn site now? It seems incongruous with the theme of the site, to put it mildly.
