I live in a dictatorship & I'm tired of it

[TiredOfThisShiz]

Just that really.

I can't sit down when I want
I don't get to use to bathroom alone
I can't eat my meal while it's still hot
I can't remember the time I finished a hot cup of tea
I can't sleep when I want
I can't work whenever I want
They prod my tummy and ask why it's big

But, the cuddles are worth it

Ah yes, the midget dictators. They're a bloody nightmare, but they're quite sweet when they're asleep

Right?! Who'd have 'em!

You missed out…. mama mama mama!

My dictators are grown now but I still have flashbacks of trying to squeeze a wee out in 2 seconds flat before the bathroom door was flung open

Omg. I have to tell mine that he only needs to say my name once! It was cute. Once. Maybe twice.

Not any-fucking-more

My youngest is 8 and still did that yesterday ... Not sure when it ends!

Yes! I live there too.

One 4-year-old to rule them all.

I am not allowed to:

Wear my new PJs
Set the table with white plates (only black ones allowed)
Sleep all night in my own bloody bed
Sit down of an evening without having first danced to at least 15 minutes of Greenday (WITH swearing - thanks DH )
Buy loo roll unless it has a picture of a duckling on it

I'm sure there are more.

I am not allowed more than 30 seconds to myself before it's "Mummy, Mummy, Mummy, where ARE you?" I feel like a high- security prisoner under constant surveillance at times (but also having to sneak away to do kitchen and cleaning detail).

I feel like a slow-moving wildebeest sometimes. As I'm ambling through the plains of our living-room, I never know when a giggling hyena is going to jump on my back or start nipping my ankles. And just as I've settled on the sofa with a drink, the attack comes from behind...
