19 hilarious tweets about coffee and parenting
If you rely on your morning cup of joe (or two) to get up and get going in the morning, you’re not alone. While people from all walks of life can be crazy for caffeine, there seems to be something about raising kids that makes a penchant for a good cup of coffee (or latte, or espresso or iced macchiato—you get the picture) an inevitability.
And who can blame moms and dads for needing a boost throughout the day? Sometimes kids are just plain exhausting. If you have kids and can’t imagine facing the day without your java fix, these tweets about parenting and the need for coffee are sure to make you LOL.
