5 Ways Being a Mom is Like Being a Pirate

5:45 AM


No, my brain has not been taken over by the little pirate boys running around my blog. Stick with me here. I was thinking the other day (yes, I know it is dangerous) that being a mom is a lot like being a pirate. How you may ask? Well, there are several ways actually, check them out below.


1. We Swab the Deck Daily


2. We Make People Walk the Plank

 

3. We Pillage and Plunder


4. We Eat, Drink and Are Merry


5. We Have a Pirate Crew
