I think most Mums (and Dads) will agree, no one can push your buttons like your offspring.
Whether they’re squabbling amongst themselves, getting under your feet, throwing a tantrum, or just making your life blinkin’ awkward, they can send your heart rate soaring into cardiac arrest territory in five seconds flat.
But on the flip side, these boiling point moments can actually be quite amusing to bystanders – as proven by my entry to this week’s Gallery ‘Show Me The Funny’.
The scene – Lucia’s first birthday. The cast – me, Monkey, my poor sister, and her two fractious kids.
Without further ado, Ladies and Gentlemen, I present: ‘Count Down to a Melt Down’…
Oh GOD! SO familiar! (and so funny seeing it happen to someone else!)
haha! Brilliant..its just like our family pictures 🙂
Like Christine said, it’s funn(ier) seeing it happen to someone else.
Lol that’s captured brilliantly! Love all the expressions in each photo! V.funny 🙂
ha! so glad it isn’t just us! we have to take at least 20 photos to get one where we all look relatively ok 🙂
That is just fabulous! It’s captured the melt down perfectly…priceless as they say!!
Priceless!
LOL!!!! Thanks for all your comments. I think my fav part of the whole sequence is the fact Lucia stays so calm the whole way through!!! She doesn’t bat an eyelid as the bedlam unfolds around her! xxx
Lol brilliant! I love seeing the changing expressions as the photo’s go on and it finally all kicks off at the end 🙂
