Sitting in a nice train, looking out of the window, watching fields go by, is therapy.

And now we brace for the trillions of cicadas about to swarm like 6-year olds on a soccer ball.

Do the parents “making special memories” on Facebook every week know that they could just go for a walk and chat with their kids instead?

Don’t you love the sound the washing machine makes when someone else is doing the laundry?

Woke up earlier than planned but at least I also got nothing done

Them: what kind of person are you? Me:

Don’t worry about me spilling the tea. Spilling the coffee, however, is a given especially when wearing a new top.

My washing machine claiming it only has 1 minute left is why I have trust issues

Marriage tip: If your wife says it’s ok for you to go out on a guys night while she stays with the kids, bring back something juicy for her to enjoy and feast on, like gossip.

“Mommy, I accidentally had an accident… on the floor” And other things they left out of parenting books

My kids say they're sick of pizza Fridays, and frankly, I'm starting to question if they're really mine or there was a mixup at the hospital.

We have two seats on the sofa that recline. My daughter sits on one and my son on the other. They love to use the recliner function. Nevermind that their legs do not reach past the couch cushion. That’s a minor detail. My husband and I are just fine on the nonreclining seats.

4: Mommy, what would you say if my arm was broken and someone tried to cut it off? Me: I’d say, back away from my little girl! 4: and I’d say, you have to cut through my mommy first! Me: 4: and then I’d call the police

Me: tomorrow is 90s day at school 4yo: who’s Ninety? Is she real? Me: The 90s was a period of time about 30 years ago when Mommy was a little girl 4yo: is Ninety dead? Me: I guess you could say that

I asked my 4yo on the way home from preschool what the best part of her day was and she said, “The best part of my day was you coming to get me.” And then she smiled. And I tried not to cry 🥹
