Took my daughter to Disney land and after spending an exhausting day doing rides and gift shops we asked her what her favorite part was and she said “the bus was pretty cool”. The bus ride. To get into the park. That was her favorite.

My children have never heard a phone ring — like a real, landline phone. And our 102 neighbor still, apparently has one. It rang while they were outside and she had the windows open, and they ran to me screaming because they thought they heard a fire alarm.

IT WAS HER PHONE.

Hubby is playing “Restaurant” with the kids and it went from them serving him food, to him calling the cops on them so I guess it’s not going well.

My dad told my daughter she was the best duster ever then leaned in to me and whispered “if you tell kids they’re amazing at the chore they don’t bitch about doing it” and suddenly I’m questioning if I really was the most amazing weed-puller he ever saw

My 6 year old just got back from visiting our elderly neighbor and said, “I told her we’d bring her some fresh baked cookies when they’re ready.” I informed her that we weren’t baking any cookies today and she said, “Oh, I guess we kinda have to now, don’t we?” Diabolical.

Our kids are at a place where their idea of a prank is just leaving a note that says “you got pranked.” It’s really funny to me, and almost overwhelmingly harmless 😅 6 left this note on the TV in our bedroom. pic.twitter.com/DLIioH7S4b
