Think you’re a “no regrets” person? Go buy your kid a 100 pack of Glo-Sticks.

There's nothing like waking up before sunrise. It makes me feel a step ahead, much more productive, and whatever other lies I can come up with when my baby wakes up so **** early.

Me: It’s an old phone

5yo: Like an old IPhone?
Me: No, like the kind that has push buttons & is attached to the wall with a cord

Me: Good talk, son

I just threatened to ground my 5yo from “all the popsicles in the freezer” so yep, our summer plans are right on track.

As a parent, you don’t typically know you’ve made the right decisions until much later. However, I recently found out that not putting a TV in my kids’ bedrooms is the main reason I don’t end up hosting more sleepovers.
