The 8yo will be okay! It’s actually—understanding the risk I’m incurring here, knocking wood—a lucky break. It’s as minimally broken as an ankle can be and still qualify for the title.

She has earned herself PT 6x/year until she’s an adult, as per ortho, but we were afraid it would be worse!

I just know I would have ended up shooting out of there like the cop on the cop slide

I am very late to come back to this, but I really thought this one was a coast-to-coast classic. What else are you supposed to sing as you dissemble a dandelion?!

Lea hasn’t heard it and other pockets of people have across the country, but not everyone! And not anyone I know who lives in the state Martha grew up in. A mystery!

A💫 already thought it was weird but I’m going to teach it to C so he grows up normal

No but our babysitter sings it that way!! Please, give the children some grim dark, they can handle it
January 28, 2025 at 2:33 PM
a) that’s so funny but b) the heated mattress pad literally changed my life, best purchase, enjoy!!

Sea WHAT!! You pick a dandelion, you say “mama had a baby,” you pop the flower off with your thumb, you say “and its head popped off!” Normal childhood things!

Right?? Literally why was I getting a look from her while performing totally normal toy face repair. What a world.

Just no culture at all in some parts of the Midwest, sad to say
January 27, 2025 at 11:46 PM
THANK you!! I said “you know, the song you sing while you’re popping the head off dandelions” and you should have seen the expressions I got back. But I knew they were the weird ones!!
January 27, 2025 at 11:46 PM
Well that’s a brand new sentence

The hustle was masterfully run AND very cute! Who could resist!!

They made a sign telling the woodpecker where there are good trees, and then the eldest pal was like, “wait, can woodpeckers read?” I love them 😂

The other one will be T H R E E in mere weeks. He’s absolutely peak 2.9 😵‍💫
January 26, 2025 at 10:18 PM
100% a grift and I absolutely let myself get suckered because they were soooo cute. They knew an easy mark!! That’s master level!
January 26, 2025 at 10:17 PM
A whole 8yo but tall and well-spoken, so, as she says, “but everyone thinks I’m nine.” 😂 how did this happen!!
January 26, 2025 at 8:16 PM
This is the proper ratio of tree to ornaments
December 23, 2024 at 1:37 AM
I thought so! Weird that the 8yos and suburban moms were less impressed??
December 23, 2024 at 1:35 AM
Isn’t it great? I’m glad you all appreciate the effort 😂
December 23, 2024 at 1:34 AM
Thank you, I am glad to know that there are still people with good taste in the world!!
