Sure, my kids are hotties and I love them. Sometimes. Generally. During the holidays a little less than usual, but that is of course simply because they sit on my lip all day and they are bored - after 2 days of holiday. Now that boredom is not so bad, I care, boredom seems to be good for them . But the fact that they want to let me know that again and again - say about every 5 minutes - that does cause some irritation. Especially if I still try to work in between. Anyway, you get it… this blog contains a grain of truth, but should also be read with a grain of salt.
10x what I think after two weeks of vacation and children at home
- Who ever came up with the idea that children should have 6 (!) weeks of vacation, or worse… almost 8 weeks when they are in high school.
- F*uck, why is the WiFi down now? Do I have to entertain the kids myself now?
- Where shall I put my children again today?
- Grr, now I really have to explain where that candy has gone.
- Oh you know what? Netflix wasn't invented for nothing, I just teach them to binge-watch 😉 .
- If they call mom one more time, I'll give them a hoe and they can get to work in the garden!
- Why don't all those school friends just go on holiday with us? We should plan better next time!
- Just a little while and then I'll bring in 3m³ of sand and fill the living room with it! With shells! Isn't that what they always say? Sand and shells… that's all a child needs?
- From what age can I have them deliver the newspaper?
- Give me that bottle of wine!
