Welcome back mothers and fathers of the internet. You never knew such highs and lows as you do while being a parent. What you once thought was life on earth has been shaken and unfurled in ways you couldn't imagine. From the sleep exhaustion, the endless caretaking, the lack of appreciation and temerity of howling cries into the night, you start to doubt if having a child was even the right decision. Yet, all of these maudlin issues disappear when you see your child smile, you hear the lilt in their adorable, childlike voice, and when you see them experience the wonders of the world. Your incertitude dissipates and you remember why you chose this long and arduous journey. 

While you're reminiscing about their toddler years, watching them grow up all too quickly, and preparing yourself for their inevitable adulthood, you can scroll through these relatable parenting memes.
