We survived Daylight Saving and lived to tell about it! Admittedly, much of this week was spent adjusting to longer days and the usual parent shenanigans. Keep reading for our roundup of how Twitter parents survived the last week.
1. But seriously.
"There has just GOT to be a way to make my mornings with the kids more difficult."

2. Let the games begin!

3. And that we’re both super!
The only thing I actually have in common with a superhero is we both wear the same outfit everyday.

4. Nope.
If you don’t kick your kid’s toy across the room after your trip on it, are you even a parent?

5. DO YOU KNOW!?
7: Guess what? Two kids from my class threw up today
— Lurkin' Mom (@LurkAtHomeMom) March 12, 2019
Me: oh no, really?
7: I think so
Me: you think?
7: well I know they went to the nurse
Me: ok so you know?
7: ummm
Me: *dunking all the backpacks in bleach* DO YOU THINK OR DO YOU KNOW?
6. Is that so much to ask?
I just want to have the kind of family that can leave the windows open on a nice day without the neighbors thinking we’re trying to kill each other.

7. Everyone needs a hobby!
As a mom, my hobbies include yelling “What’s going on in there?” without ever getting up to check what’s actually going on in there

8. It’s going to be a long day.
OMG is it almost your bedtime yet?
— Rodney Lacroix (@RodLacroix) March 14, 2019
– me, to my kids, at 8 A.M.
9. Thank you, daylight saving.
We may have lost an hour of sleep, but at least our kids get an extra hour of daylight… so they can argue about going to bed at their normal time because it's still sunny outside.

10. Yeah, so there’s that.
I know we were supposed to be here 15 minutes ago, but all 3 of my children had to open and shut the door before we could leave.
