As we approach June, the countdown to summer begins, marking the end of another school year. But before we can bask in the glow of freedom, we face those chaotic last few weeks. Honestly, it feels like a comedy sketch—just getting the kids ready seems like a monumental task. Are we really expected to make sure they leave the house fully dressed, and with their backpacks intact?
With just a few days left in the school year, who really needs new shoes or fresh pencils? And those t-shirts? Let’s be real; faded and torn is the new normal. As for lunch? Just toss in a few apples and call it a day, right?
The Anderson family recently shared a relatable video that captures this exact struggle. They aptly noted, “In our home, September Parenting looks a lot different than May Parenting. How about you?” Their hashtags hit close to home: #whoneedsabrush #lunchisoptional #makeitstop.
September Parenting:
Look at these brand new shoes! They’ll keep you safe and comfortable all year long!
May Parenting:
Mom, these shoes have holes in them. You know what? In a few weeks, you’ll be living in flip-flops anyway, so let’s just tape these up and hope for the best.
If you find yourself feeling a little overwhelmed with the state of your household right now, take heart. Remember, everyone seems like a better parent come fall.
