I saw this on Facebook today and thought I’d share it here as suddenly assuming rock-star status has done wonders for my evening. Enjoy!
How being a parent is like being a rock star:
The eye bags add to the up-all-night rock-star look
– Your job is to entertain a room full of loud, writhing maniacs
– If you do your job well, people ask you when you’ll produce more
– You ask yourself daily: “Am I tripping? Or did I really just see that?”
– Your name is always shouted, never spoken
– Someone is always pulling at your clothes
– Groupies follow you to the bathroom
– There’s a different person in your bed every night. Sometimes even two
– At the end of your work day, you’re sweaty and your hair is a mess
– Screaming is just part of the job
Thank you to Kim at letmestartbysayingblog.com, who wrote this and whose blog I’ve just discovered.
Very funny! I sometimes feel like I am managing a rock band…constantly clearing up mess and apologising for their behaviour….
NVG, love that analogy! So true!

So glad you saw it! I meant to ask you if it was okay, but with the time difference and all, I hoped you wouldn’t mind if I went ahead! I’ve had a good nosey round your blog – great stuff! 🙂
As long as my watermark isn’t cleaned off my image & I get linked back for credit, I am always happy to share!
Parents are like things that come in pairs (shoes,socks,earrings,gloves,etc),you lose one,but you’ve still got the other.
Very true xx
