This is a more light-hearted meme featuring a free-spirited dog who appears in just a few episodes of Bluey: Indy's mother. Like her child, she is somewhat counter-cultural.

The Heeler family is incredibly creative. Given some time and any materials, they can come up with wonderfully imaginative games for the whole family to enjoy together. In the image, Bluey is getting ready to play a funny game where she jumps on an upturned washing basket at the top of the stairs while little sister Bingo and dad, Bandit, watch on happily.

Many parents have experience with children leaving the house looking tidy, and well-groomed, with no stains, bruises, or anything unusual. However, because kids are kids and they love to explore the world around them, they tend to come home after a long day in a considerably different state from how they left. Bingo here exemplifies that exact idea as she looks like a sweet little angel in the first image and in the second, she has clearly decided to get creative.
5 Unexpected Behavior
Bluey does a great job of depicting what life with young children is like. It's not always clear how they may respond to things as they're developing, and a lot of things change from day to day. There are dozens of stories shared online about kids becoming agitated with slight changes in their environment or in response to things they had no reaction to before. Whether it's from being given food they've loved in the past but now can't stand or their clothes don't fit how they'd like, moods tend to swing. Here, Chilli is lying on the ground, potentially exhausted from such interactions and speaking with her sister Brandy.

In the first image, Muffin is standing calmly and quietly, but the second image gives a much more accurate depiction of her energy on the show.

Everybody deserves some time out to enjoy themselves, and this meme captures that perfectly.
