My 7 yo informed me she has changed her dream job from “Doctor” to “Ice-Cream Lady.” Best decision she’s ever made.

Asked my 9 yo how his day went and he responded with, “well, it started off just like any other Wednesday…”

9 told me he’s not going to be able to sleep tonight because he just realized he can put anything into a deep fryer.
I wish that’s what kept me up at night.

This day in history. 1990. Charges against Axl Rose for assault with what the victim called "a really good bottle of Chardonnay" were dropped because there's no such thing.

Life is getting worse in small but noticeable ways almost every day, but on the other hand, the quality and variety of the frozen pizza aisle has never been better.

We were watching a show about oceans before school and my 6yo asked what “abyss” means. I gave her the short definition, “deep, dark & empty.” For most the abyss would cause uneasiness, perhaps a tremble of fear. She just shrugged her shoulders and said, “sassy.”
This generation scares me.

I found myself sitting beside the doctor who delivered me 42 years ago so I asked “do you remember me?” and he looked at me and deadpanned “it’s hard to tell when you’re wearing clothes”.

I'm at that age where my mind still thinks I'm 29, my sense of humour suggests I'm 12, whilst my body mostly keeps asking if I'm sure I'm not dead yet.
