Quotes from my two year old:
— Melanie Lynskey (@melanielynskey) April 19, 2021
“In fact, I have feet”- on feet
“My beautiful brain!” -upon waking from a nap
“Awww! They so tired. And one is higher”- after seeing my breasts
Apparently when your children ask you why others let bad things happen, “because people are trash” is not the right answer.

My son saw me putting on concealer under my eyes and said, “why are you doing that?” I said, “It makes me look a bit younger and more awake.” He said, “But inside you’re old and tired?” And I said yep and he said “tricky!” with admiration

My kids went back to full-time school today and while I’m thrilled to have them out of the house, I’ll miss hearing my 2nd grader’s teacher yell “I’M ABOUT TO LOSE IT IF YOU GUYS DON’T PAY ATTENTION!” on Zoom and nodding to myself in solidarity.

Since my son knows everything what should I ask him?

I made my kids go through their toys to get rid of some, and long story short, they somehow have more toys than they began with.

If You Take a Mom to Target:
— TwinzerDad (@TwinzerDad) April 18, 2021
If you take a Mom to Target, she’ll probably see a cute decorative basket in the dollar section that she likes.
Picking out that basket will remind her that she needs a bunch of stuff to put in it.

i think like all mothers, all earth probably wants on her day is for everyone to clean their shit up and stop leaving all the damn lights on

Wife [walking into kitchen]: DID YOU GIVE THE KIDS CAKE FOR DINNER?
— Rodney Lacroix (@RodLacroix) April 19, 2021
Me [looking at the kids eating cake for dinner]: I feel like you already know the answer to this.
I don’t want to be invited out. I want you to invite the kids without me.
