NEVER ENDING

IT'S the time of day that many parents dread - the school run.

That's the realisation that mum Jessica Da Silva came to when she was dropping her daughter to nursery for her second day.
"As I was walking home, I came to the realisation that I’ll have to be doing the same school run for 18 years,"
"And the same awkward smile to the parents on the playground because I can’t be bothered to talk to them."
She then demonstrated said awkward smile, before adding: "F**k!"

"Only had two days of it and already want to get in the bin," Jessica captioned her video.

"awkward smiles and seeing the same ppl twice a day," one wrote.
