1. A moment you realized you were a grown up.
I don’t always feel like being a grown up. I do appreciate some of the perks that come with being adult, but I’m less interested in grown up responsibilities. Below is a list of 10 moments that frequently remind me I’m the grown up in this house…like it or not:
1. Every time a child asks me what’s for dinner.
2. When kids scream for me to kill a spider.
3. When no one has swapped out the empty roll of toilet paper.
4. Anytime there’s throw-up.
5. When the smoke alarm battery needs to be changed and the damn thing beeps throughout the entire God forsaken night.
6. When something is clogging up the vacuum cleaner.
7. When my kids school sends a letter home asking why my child has so many unexcused absences.
