Parenting can often feel like a never-ending cycle of worries—whether your kid is eating enough greens or if they’re just a bit too lively. But fear not! Here are ten phrases that will have those around you believing you’re the embodiment of calm, or maybe you’ve just found a way to sneak in a cocktail before noon.
1. “That’s all good.”
This versatile expression is perfect for those moments when your child decides to use the couch as a canvas for their art. Just saying it gives off a vibe of relaxation. Plus, it makes you sound like the cool kid from high school.
2. “No biggie.”
This casual phrase has a playful tone that conveys a chill attitude. It’s great for those unexpected moments when the school closes due to an outbreak of something gross. Just remember to wear a smile—no grimaces allowed!
3. “What doesn’t break you!”
This cheeky twist on “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is bound to get some chuckles and nods of understanding from other confident, easygoing moms who don’t panic at every little sneeze.
4. “I’m not too concerned.”
This phrase is a surefire way to appear like the coolest mom on the block, even when you’re frantically scanning the playground for your wandering toddler. Use it while remaining calm—at least on the outside!
5. “Life’s too short to stress over that!”
True, life can be incredibly brief, especially when you neglect to clean up after a mud pie disaster. But don’t let that ruin the moment—stay breezy!
6. “What’s with the long face?”
Use this when your little one takes a tumble, as you drive them to the hospital. Pair it with a gentle pat on their back (not while dialing your husband, of course) to keep the mood light.
7. “Easy breezy.”
This fun phrase is perfect for those nights when dinner plans go awry. No food in the fridge? Easy breezy, you’ll just whip up some pasta with whatever you can find—cream cheese, anyone?
8. “Whip up something.”
This adorable phrase suggests you’ll be crafting a gourmet meal without any prior planning—like a culinary superhero. Coq au vin or a chocolate soufflé? Why not, you’ve got it covered!
9. “No trouble at all.”
Deploy this phrase whenever you’re filled with anxiety, like when a deadline looms but your kid has caught a stomach bug. Just say it and watch as your worries seem to fade away.
10. “There’s always tomorrow.”
This saying can be used when your in-laws come for an extended visit. Well, maybe not always! Just keep the Xanax handy, just in case.
