There are a lot of things to learn when you become a parent.
From nursing to getting them to sleep, it’s all one big learning curve. And, really, it doesn’t get much easier as they get older – it just becomes a different sort of learning curve.
Thankfully, the parents of Twitter understand. Or, at least, are able to relate and find some LOL-worthy humour in the chaos.
And with Christmas Day finally here, we have rounded up 15 tweets about Christmas which are *way* too relatable for parents.
The children were nestled
all snug in their beds
until they had to pee
get a drink
show me they can whistle
and ask me if birds have teeth.— MamaFizzles (@MamaFizzles) December 20, 2016
The most challenging part of Christmas is staying up later than my kids to put the presents out.

Kids are at each other’s throats, I haven’t picked anything for my mother in law yet, my 7yo has stopped using words and only speaks to me in various tones of “beep” and “boop” and I haven’t wrapped a single gift. December is never going to end, is it?

It’s not really Christmas until I’ve brought out my mom’s vintage “I WILL TAKE BACK ALL OF YOUR PRESENTS” threats.

Kid: Why is our elf so lazy?
Me: Maybe she’s tired after cooking, cleaning, and doing all the laundry.

Me: Why?
