Farcical Fed Up Family Memes For The Parents In Need Of A Mini-Break

Yeah, it is Friday, but we know that we are not the only ones in dire need of a mini-break right now. Could you not just imagine yourself leaving the kids behind and jumping on a plane to Tuscany, drinking wine and sunbathing in the winter sun, all the while there is silence around you, peace within you, harmony in your soul. Sounds like a pipe dream, does it not? Well that is because it is, and if we had the time, money and magical ability to arrange child-care for international travel at a moment's notice, we all would be jumping at the opportunity.

So instead we have a budget, time and energy friendly collection of relatable parenting memes from the parents, who like you, are just that little bit too tired to be dealing with all this and could really do with a mini-break. So raise your sippy cup orange juice and salute your fellow parents this Friday.
