My husband and I called my sweet, 85-year-old grandma to tell her I got a new job. She congratulated us, talked for a bit, and then hung up. Later she called me to say I should open a secret bank account and never tell my husband about it. My grandma is fierce.
My kids and I were watching Willy Wonka and at the same time we all got up to fast forward through the Cheer Up Charlie Song and it’s just so nice we finally have something we agree on.
The rule states that if a husband uses his stud finder for any reason he must first hold it up to himself and say, “found one!”
You ever just meet a little kid with a big personality and think “mmmm those those teen years are gonna be brutal on those poor parents”
Raising a middle schooler means spending a fortune on hair, nails, and makeup that doesn’t belong to you. Meanwhile you’re somehow walking around in public looking increasingly like a bridge troll.
My dog just growled at me because I keep walking into rooms and forgetting why I’m there so looks like she’s sick of my shit too.
First rule of parenthood: Don’t ever think to yourself “it’s because of my awesome parenting my kid’s a good sleeper/eater/easy-going human being” because number 2 will come along waking up 42 times a night straight up refusing to eat anything but sliced bananas for 6 years.
6-year-old: Did you know an octopus has 9 brains? Me: I did not know that. 6-year-old: That’s because you only have 1 brain.
For anyone hearing “kids spend too much time on devices nowadays,” I have one thing and one thing only to say, “Now this is the story all about how…,” It’s a rare condition this day in age…,” “When I wake up in the morning and the alarm gives out a warning…”
Parenting hack: Sometimes if you wait long enough to help them find it, they will LITERALLY JUST OPEN THEIR EYES! It’s crazy.
My kid’s bff was out sick so she didn’t have anyone to sit w/. She asked a girl in her class if she could join & the girl said, “Ofc! You’re my friend!” My kid said she spent the rest of the day smiling. If u rlly want to improve the world w/ kindness, it starts at the lunchtable
So like I know the things that make a great mom are super subjective but my daughter just said her favorite songs are Fast Car and Landslide so I must be doing something right
Whether it’s rocks, stamps, coins, or soda can flip tops, your childhood is not complete without at least one failed collection.
The back of my Christmas tree is nobody’s business
When I just started accepting sock sandals as a staple of my wardrobe the second part of my life began.
Unpopular opinion - wait until everyone’s gone to open birthday presents.
Christmas decor isn’t meant to be sleek and minimalist it is supposed to look like joy threw up in your house
Everyone talks about Xmas as their favorite time of the year but nobody talks about that week smashed in right after when time and space cease to exist, where we’ve all agreed to rest and sleep and do nothing. Because that THAT is the actual best time of the year.
When did hugging go from something I did to soothe my kids to something I do to soothe me?
You know what’s awesome, new moms! 15 years from now, nobody’s gonna give a sh*t how you birthed your baby or what you fed them bc breastfed, bottlefed, whatever, eventually all of your little teenagers are gonna look you dead in the face and say, “You never do anything for me!”
