Anyone have some good "everything went wrong today" stories?

(curious if people like this AI art style or my hand-drawn one posted earlier better)

Sometimes it just feels like nothing is going right and the kids are everywhere... it can be hard. Sometimes hard to stay calm and deal with it. Because overall everything will be fine... probably.

I was trying to cook, messed up an ingredient and also burned the food. One kids crying, one kid wanting attention, another kid needed food. Wife was sick. Ended up just having to get some food delivery. It can be hard, but I just moved forward and dealt with it.

When my girl twins where babies, they would both come sit on my lap. Now just my boy. And look, I know I am a sucker. They are crying at the door, putting their little fingers under it. I cave ok, I cave. I let them sit and chill with me.

I can't be the only one, right? Maybe I am just crazy, lol.

Sometimes you got to put yourself between the chaos and the carpet. Doing my Dadding Duty.

Throw up doesn't bother me at all, so if no bucket or toilet is available for my kid, I would much rather them hit me, than my carpet or my couch! I feel I am so much easier to clean than the creases and crevices it can get caught in or soak into.

One time my little girl threw up while we were at piano lessons. I did everything I could to block it all with my body to save the piano teacher's couch and floor, and I actually succeeded. Win one for Dad, fun drive home though...

After, my daughter felt so embarrassed and sad (6-year-old then). She was horrified she threw up on her dad. I told her it was great, and if it happens again, aim for me if you don't have a bucket.

She went home and said to mom "Dad says I can throw up on him whenever". And she was happy as a clam.

Hello, I am a dad who recently started making funny comics of my Dadding Life. I just thought it would be fun to share some of those moments here.

Hopefully this hand drawn art in GIMP will be better received than the terrible AI art I had before (as I was informed, ridiculed, and cursed at for using before). Hopefully not everyone on the server is like that. If I make a mistake, just let me know, no need to be rude. I will fix it. Sorry for my misunderstanding of the rules.

I also suck at drawing... but oh well, kind of fun to attempt to draw my comic.

I have two 7-year-old daughters and a 1-year-old son. My life has been a whirlwind of infertility and my wife's cancer, but things are calming down for us now (cancer free).

My 1-year-old son just went through a bout of diarrhea and vomiting. Fun challenge for my wife and I to handle. I got thrown up on a lot 😂 Poop was everywhere and felt like a tidal wave of it. But I buckled down and handled it.
