Were you one of those people who always vowed to keep your house clean after having kids? And then your parents, your friends or anyone else with kids laughed and laughed because they knew the truth.

Here are a few things many parents can relate to:

1. Memories

Ha ha ha! #feralkids #memories #messykids #parenting

2. Looks like the kids had a fun party today

3. Yep. This is on purpose

4. Sometimes it's actually the noise that's messy

5. Pretty much the biggest waste of time

Story of my life! Haha! ?

6. And then compare how long that takes to clean up

7. Even if you'd just use the same cup all day instead of 10 different ones

8. If you have this sort of bravery, I salute you

17. Repeat after me: "It's all replaceable. Children are not."

Just a typical day in my household...

18. It's a game we're playing

19. It's like kids see a clean surface and just can't resist

20. 24/7 and no pay

It's OK. Just go have a piece of that chocolate you stored in the back of the freezer. Hopefully the kids haven't found your stash.
