Nothing says “I don’t know how to adult yet” like pulling out your kids’ backpacks at 7pm on the night before they go back to school and praying like a teenager there’s no homework inside we forgot to do.

Things are getting a little emotionally deregulated at the Queso house. Good things the kids go back to school tomorrow, am I right?

Are you sure you’re a parent if you aren’t now counting down the MINUTES until your kids are back in school?

— MomTransparenting (@momtransparent1) January 3, 2019

Me: OMG, I can't wait for Monday.

My husband, who has been home from work for two weeks: Oh, cause the kids are back in school?

Me: Yeeessssss, that's the only reason.

Hey I have an idea for a holiday.

How about one where right before you go back to work and school you keep all the kids up later than they’ve ever stayed up and completely destroy their sleep schedule?

I don’t know who needs to hear this but resolutions don’t start til the kids are back in school.

Finally, back to my regular routine of scrambling to get my kid out the door in time for school.

For break, my kids wouldn’t sleep in no matter how late we stayed up or how much we begged them. By 7, baby was hollering into the monitor every day.

Today it’s back to work and back to school and back to daycare but it’s 8am and everyone but me is still sound asleep…

Me: Okay, enough roughhousing. Time to pack up and go wait for the bus.

Son: School doesn't start until next week.

— JazzJargon (@JazzJargon) January 2, 2024

Tomorrow, when I drop my kid off at school, I plan on wrapping my arms around her, shedding a few tears & saying "Ms. Amy, I'm so happy the school is back open today!"

Then scream "see ya later sucka!" to my daughter & high 5 the other parents as I run out the door celebrating.
