Svi luduju za tatom koji urnebesnim fotkama opisuje život s četiri kćerke

Simon Hooper, na društvenim mrežama poznatiji kao “Father Of Daughters”, je gotovo preko noći postao prava Internetska senzacija. Naime, na svom Instagram profilu je odlučio pokazati kako izgleda stvarno roditeljstvo, a njegova brutalna iskrenost je oduševila mnoge.

Inače, Simon je otac četiri djevojčice koje svojom domišljatošću i nepodopštinama neprestano nasmijavaju njegove fanove.

Birthdays parties are one of few times in your life can legitimately make it all about you without feeling guilty. To shamelessly get your way and to soak up the attention showered up on you from all directions – perfect both for 3 year old and 36 year olds who haven't grown up yet (i.e. me). But what happens if you to share that day with someone who's a mirror image of you and loves nothing more than following you around like a shadow in a heatwave? The answer – a competition to take centre stage – the eventual winner (Ottilie) then led a dance to a seemingly never ending loop of baby shark while the loser (Delilah) clinged me in the kitchen as I make crustless ham sandwiches Picture 3 tells the whole story in one shot! I guess twin like can be hard sometimes. Fyi @mother_of_daughters will kill me for this picture because of “all the chins” but she looks great and I rarely get all my girls in one shot, so suck it up Clemmie, you're beautiful from all angles.

“Želim ljudima pružiti realističan prikaz roditeljstva, i to iz perspektive roditelja. Previše je uljepšavanja oko nas pa sam želio pokazati pravu istinu, ali uz dozu humora”, ispričao je ovaj simpatični tata u razgovoru za HuffPost.

One moment I'm method acting the crap out of my role as a granny named Lucy at an exclusive tea party hosted by the twins, the next they've abandoned me quicker than the entourage of a celebrity embroiled in a sex scandal to act out scenes from a budget version of king Kong. In that moment, I transformed from being an engaged parent to a 36 year old man in tent who's been left ponder his life choices whilst talking to himself in strange accents & drinking air from a wooden cup. Isn't parenting wonderful. There's a long list of things I've continued to do when the those with the attention span of an senile goldfish decide to sod off that includes colouring, Lego, playing with dolls & simple puzzles that I time myself to complete because, well, why not! Who else has been dumped mid play & continued on your own? #abandoned #budgetkingkong #thisairislovely #maninatent #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad #fod

Nedavno se požalio kako su ga njegove blizanke pozvale na “ekskluzivnu čajanku”, a onda je naglo otkazale kako bi odglumile scenu iz “King Konga”. No, kako kaže, to ga nije spriječilo da ostane uživljen u ulogu bakice Lucy koja uživa u ispijanju čaja.

How do you tell a child that their pet is now an ex pet? They say ‘Don't ever work with children or animals’, but with half my family in the middle of the Indian Ocean, that's all I've been left to work with! My adult face to face time has been reduced to idle chat with the Amazon delivery guy as he off loads yet more of @mother_of_daughters secret purchases & as a result, I've been making like Dr. Dolittle & unloading my emotional baggage on 2 innocent hamsters & a dog. This obviously had a profound effect on poor Fluffy the hamster as it sent him spiralling into a deep depression, and this morning I found him in his cage, stiffer than a steel girder. Great. For the second time in my parenting career, I'm the dad that killed his daughters pet while she was on holiday. So here's the challenge, I've got 5 days to figure out how to break the news when she returns without breaking daughters heart – how do I do it?! #ripfluffy #idepressedmypet #bearerofdadnews #help #dadlife #instadad #fod #fatherofdaughters

Otkrio je i gdje završavaju sva ona umjetnička djela koja mu djevojčice donesu iz vrtića. Kako kaže, “na mjestu gdje ih svi mogu vidjeti”.

Conventional wisdom tells us that the passage of time through space happens at a constant rate forwards, but when you have children, that changes. I can only conclude that there's a rip in the space time continuum right above the girls bedroom as time just vanished this evening, leaving me feeling like I'd be screwed hard by a flux capacitor with anger management issues. One moment it's 6.30pm & I'm rounding them up for a bath, then I blinked & it was 8.15pm the world had fallen apart. Bath time – a tsunami nightmare that would have drowned the entire cast of ‘honey I shrunk the kids’. Teeth – a stand off that ended in toothpaste in the eyes. Story time – A jackanory balls up that left me questioning my life choices. Bed time – a yoga session for hyperactive chipmunks that ended with Ottie hiding for 15 minutes in silence & me shouting down the street in the dark because I thought she'd gone (only to be found eating a chocolate egg under Anya's desk covered in a blanket). Of course, as I'd focused all my energy on these 2, the elder ones hadnt even had dinner! It may have only been a total of 1hr 45 minutes but I've aged several years on the process. I'm stongly considering calling Doc Brown to take be back to 2015 so I can get a vasectomy. #doctakemebacktogetavasectomy #ihatetuesday #screwedbyyimetravel #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad #fod

Priznao je kako ga nekad spremanje djevojčica na spavanje natjera na razmišljanje zašto još 2015. godine nije napravio vazektomiju…

Ah soft play. If you've never been, let me paint a picture for you. Close your eyes & imagine a gigantic fancy hamster cage made from wipe clean surfaces that a rainbow vomited over. Now imagine that cage is in a large room with a thermostat stuck on Sahara desert mode & has the same ventilation as a vacuum chamber. Now imagine what seems like 1000 feral kids ranging in ages from 1 to small adults all thrown in that cage, hydrated only by carbonated drinks and adrenaline, who know they're free from parental supervision for the next hour. Finally add in the stale smell of farts and feet. Congratulations, you're at softplay! @mother_of_daughters suggested we came here while she was out yesterday , but we all know that's code for “I spent 5 hours cleaning up after you lot yesterday & I want you to sod off so there's a chance the house won't look like a squat hit by a dirty bomb when I get home. Fair enough. Soft play it is. #softplay #warehouseoffartsandfeet #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad #fod #

Iako uživa u zajedničkim praznicima, priznaje kako ga uvijek raduje trenutak u kojem se svi vraćaju svojim obvezama…

Holidays can be hard as although school may have broken up, parents can't always take the time off which means we get caught the middle of trying to be present to meet our children's never ending demands to entertain them like a unpaid court jesters while also trying to do our day jobs. Invariably the result is bored kids and frustrated adults who, had we been graded on our half term performance, would have had red circles all over our work & a note at the bottom saying “not your best effort, see me after class”. But then there are those days like today when you realise if we stop putting pressure on ourselves to be all things to all people all the time, we're more likely to relax and just enjoy the simple things like having a ice cream on the beach in February. Dialling down the hectic life we make for ourselves & taking things slow isn't a bad thing. It's something we should all do more off from time to time. Glad school starts tomorrow though! #simplethings #februaryicecream #slowdown #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad #fod

T'was the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring…..apart from the 4 hyped up children who have main lined festive spirit intravenously & are massively over excited at the prospect of a large guy dressed in red, breaking into our home and leaving presents in their bedroom. Father Christmas is getting advocaat this year as daddy forgot to buy sherry and now I'm banished to the “wrapping room” for the next 2 hours to pay for my sins as once again, I've last everything to the last minute. Good luck everyone, merry Christmas and here's to hoping you don't see your children eye balling you from the foot of your bed at 3.38am shouting “he came, he came!!! ” #christmaseve #mygirls #highonfestivespirit #worstbedtimeonrecord #fatherofdaughters #dadlife #instadad #fod
