The little berks are way more fun on paper than in real life!  I try to tell my friends without babies that they are totally overrated but do they believe me? NO!  And then they go get pregnant with the $90,000 infertility baby that's broken and can't seem to gain weight on mom's low milk supply. The 37 year old breasts probably don't help matters. All the time I'm thinking, I'm so glad I'm not you! But I also wish I wasn't me. I still have adult drama queens that live at home. I haven't had sex in years because I have 2 women and 2 grandsons living on Mom's and Dad's largess. When does it ever get better?  Now I fear a future in adult diapers at the mercy of these lazy assed free loading brats with nothing to show for my life except all the things I was going to do someday when the kids grew up and it was my turn. Well, it's bloody well someday! And I'm still not having fun. I am having a mid life crisis!! I don't want to be a mom anymore.  They are 32 and 27 for Merlin's sake! All they do is take and never give. How responsible am I to make sure they have a place to live with my beautiful but badly planned grandchildren they can't take care of?  Am I allowed to run away and live in a senior apartment complex for less money while they brats have no cars, no jobs, and no place to live.  Where is ownership of problems here?  I'll never be happy as Molly. Tell me girls, what to do! I don't want to live like this until I'm too old and sick to run away under my own speed. Poor Hermione and Severus are just starting.  Just kill me now!

Awww!  Great details, very well written.

Lol, this story is the truth!! Lol. Very cute.

Oh, how well I remember those days. I once fell asleep queuing in a shop and found myself sliding down the wall. Poor them.

What a thoroughly delightful story, and so real!  At every step I was nodding my head is commiseration with Hermione and Severus.  After that long without an uninterrupted night's sleep, priorities will change.  Thanks for this Daddy and Mommy Snape tale.  Always one of my favorites.Beth

awww... domestic bliss! love snape this way,... so reasonable yet not ooc because of his love for his wife and child!

Definitely a night of bliss, no matter which way you look at it.

<3 The first is always the hardest <3 Really cute!

Poor parents! Babies are a 24/7 job with no pay and little sleep! It makes sense that they would opt for a peaceful night's sleep than sex, but for their sakes I hope they remedy that soon!
