ARE YOU A PARENT who’s sick of Pinterest-perfect mummy blogs featuring homes with a distinct lack of snot and/or sick stains? You might like this.
Mother of two Katie Kirby started her blog, Hurrah For Gin, to give a “real and humourous” account of parenting young children. She says:
I will be the first to admit that I have struggled with many aspects of parenting but am firmly of the opinion that if you don’t laugh about these challenges you’ll cry.
She illustrates her blog with these wonderfully lo-fi Microsoft Paint representations of her daily life as a mum of two boys.
There’s the luxury of going to the shop alone
The endless struggle to keep the kids entertained
The new dimension to hangovers
The phone call of dread
The regular arguments over what’s for dinner
And the realisation that silence is not always golden
You can check out more of Katie’s drawings on her Facebook page. Hurrah for gin, indeed.
