The moms and dads on Twitter keep me laughing, and also feeling like I’m not alone on this crazy ride!

My son had a meltdown because his sister accidentally stepped on his piece of popcorn shaped "perfectly like an octopus" and he was saving it for "his collection." I don't know about this collection. I don't want to know about this collection.

Her: No. I want to be a normal person and do nothing.
