AH, THE JOYS OF PARENTHOOD

My six-year-old, to her crying brother: It’s OK to be sad. Sometimes we need to let our feelings out. Just let yourself be sad.

Me: Oh darling, that’s so lovely. Well done. Why is he crying anyway? My six-year-old: I hit him. — @ELSPELLS13

I walked in on my threeyear-old pumping all of our hand soap into the bathroom sink, all while chanting “wasting soap, wasting soap” to himself. — @NULLSTATEOFMIND

Six: So, you’ll never get taller?

Me: Nope, I can’t grow taller.

Six: Only fatter, right? — @Homewithpeanut

Me: Yes, you were in my belly.

My three-year-old, with tears in her eyes: Why … why did you eat me? — @GOINGBYRENEE

You may be tough, but you’re not “just sat through a 4th grade recorder concert” tough. — @mcdadstuff
