Buy four bananas, and they'll be devoured in the same day with complaints you didn't buy enough bananas. Buy 12 bananas so there's plenty for everyone, and you'll wind up with 12 brown, rotting bananas.

My two-year olds have reached the age where they can remember when I’ve told them that we’ll do something “later” and I don’t want to overstate it but I’m pretty sure this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to me.

Having a nice dinner with the family and my son asked me "Truth or dare?" so obviously I chose truth as the safer option, and he said "Who do you have a crush on aside from Dad?" and everyone went silent and stared at me accusingly.

My 5yo is dressed as her approximation a UPS worker and she’s carrying an empty cardboard box while chasing the cat around the house, saying, “Come on, Lola, hold still. I have a delivery for you.”

She asked “Why are your legs sore? When you ran the ball you got tackled for a loss, you didn’t run anywhere. You went backwards”
Tough in this house
