A woman in the elevator just complimented me on my hair and then I complimented her on her shoes. My 5-year-old whispers, “Why are you saying nice things to each other?” The woman turns to her and says, “Because we’re women and it’s our job to hold each other up.”

Damn straight.

I would just like to thank the person who told my daughter that when she lies her eyes turn a different color. Now she squeezes her eyes shut every time she lies… and my job just became a whole lot easier.

Before getting married, you should be required to go on a road trip. If your relationship can survive 10 or more hours of your partner panic gasping every time you speed up and change lanes, you’re meant to be.

My husband and I called my sweet, 85-year-old grandma to tell her I got a new job.

She congratulated us, talked for a bit, and then hung up.

Later she called me to say I should open a secret bank account and never tell my husband about it.

My grandma is fierce.

25 years ago, a girl in my class called me a bit*h and made me cry. I just told my mom I made plans to have lunch with this person and she says, “Oh, you’re hanging out with HER? I never liked her. DON’T tell her I say hi.”

No one holds a grudge better than a mom.

I had to cough but my kids were sleeping so I literally just choked on my own saliva because apparently I choose dying over accidentally waking them up.

No one makes more observations than a child sharing a stall with his mother inside a public restroom.

My daughter yells out, “Daddy, I clogged the toilet. I need a boy’s help!” My husband walks over with the plunger, hands it to her, and says, “Let’s teach you not to need anybody’s help.”

Damn straight.

Husbands be like, “Where’s that thing I left out for 45 days that you finally put away exactly where it goes? Why are you always moving my stuff?!”

I had to update my driver’s license photo at the DMV and I complained that I looked terrible in it and the guy said, “Lady, that’s literally exactly what you look like” and now my day is ruined.

A mom just told her kids the park is closing so they would leave without throwing fits.

Another mom overheard and said, “Uh-oh, the park is closing! Gotta go!

So I said, “Everyone’s leaving! Let’s follow them out!”

We all winked at each other and got in our cars.

Teamwork.

5: Mommy, why do girls wear bras?

Me: To support their boobies.

5: No, they’re trapping their boobies. They’re booby traps. *cracks herself up*

I’m raising a comedian.

Spent ten minutes scrubbing the wall thinking my kids left a huge stain on it and then realized it was my own shadow. I’m fine. It’s fine. Everything’s fine.

Hot tip: if your kid comes home in a terrible mood and seems to hate everything in the universe, FEED THEM. Nothing they say can or should be used against them until they’ve had at least 3 snacks.

Today I worked from home, ran 10 miles, homeschooled my kids, cleaned the house, made a delicious dinner, and got my kids to bed early. It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you lie.
