    A Santa Sack Full of Parenting Memes for Moms and Dads Riding Out the Last Week of Winter Break

    Welcome, moms and dads of the internet. Another Christmas has come and gone, but the holidays are not yet over. We are in the strange limbo between Xmas and New Year's, wherein in time does not exist and the exact date, day of the week, and time of day are mere suggestions that ultimately meld together in a sugar cookie-fueled jumble. The kids are still hyped about their new toys, likely busy building Legos or testing out the controls on their newest console. Parents can take it easy and sip on some eggnog to help get them through all of the family drama that the holidays seem to inevitably bring. However, well-seasoned parents know that this is just the calm before the storm. Post-New Year's kids will be much more difficult to handle as the novelty of their gifts wears off and they start getting antsy about going back to school or day care. Enjoy the break while it lasts by scrolling these thrse relatable parenting memes!

      Honestly, if my kid doesn't get cast as the most random inanimate object in the school play, I'm rioting. I won't have any of this leading role nonsense. I want Shrub #5.

      Simon Holland → @simoncholland Think you are chill and laid back? Watch your kid build and decorate a gingerbread house without intervening.

      They can decorate is however they want, but it has to be structurally sound and also an architectural marvel.

      Adulting is realizing giving presents is way more fun than receiving, but unfortunately, way more expensive.

      Whitney Ballard @WhitneyBallard_ : Buying gifts for your kids is tough because you want to give them the world...but you also don't want them to be entitled...but you want to spoil them a little...but you also don't want to give them "too much"...but you also want them to feel super special...but also grateful...

      We're all aiming for that perfect balance.

      Not the Santa @not_thenanny Watching Home Alone for the first time in 20 years and the most @NOT_THENANNY implausible plot point is that the McCallisters would oversleep until 8am with that many kids in the house.

      Jen Hirst @jenleehirst Christmas time is great because you can shout "Don't come in here!" and people assume you're wrapping presents, instead of just wanting to be left alone.

      Marcy G @BunAndLeggings My husband said it would be easier if we had a Christmas house that we moved into in December instead of taking all these decorations out

      We should all live in tiny, ornamental Christmas villages.

      @dad hard Dads get stereotyped as not being involved in Christmas shopping which is totally unfair because my wife hasn't even told me what gifts I'm getting for everybody yet.

      She's making a list, she's checking it twice.

      @dad_hard The best holiday tradition is when my wife and I finally sit down after Christmas is over and talk about how this year was too stressful and pretend that next year we'll simplify.

      thehiddensnacksmama 6 I just listened to a song about how every day should be Christmas, but it's clear the singer isn't involved in making Christmas dinner or creating the holiday magic for the kids!

      They've never had to painstakingly extend the branches of an artificial Christmas tree one by one…
