Big Brain Person

We drive past some warehouses with for sale signs outside. One of them boasts 52,000 square feet.

Me: Fifty-two thousand square feet? I can't even wrap my head around that.
Hubs: You probably could. Your head is pretty big.


[In his defense, I do have an unusually large noggin. I have to wear men's hats.]

Bustin' Heads

I recently took a road trip with my 3yo and 5yo daughters and made some lap desks to help keep them entertained.

Slim Shady

Our five-year-old decided to have a fashion show and this is what she came up with for one trip down the catwalk:



Me: Well, you look rather... urban.
Hubs: She looks like a white Eminem.

Confucious Say

Hubs's fortune:



Hubs: I think this is yours. Shouldn't it have an S at the end?

Teaching Me a Lesson, Part Deux

Hubs spots a weird pattern on my leg:



Hubs: What did you do? Were you leaning on a Lego? 
Me: No..? I don't think so. [I check the soles of my shoes but they're striped] 
Hubs: [checks the bottoms of his shoes and it's a match] Oh. It's probably from where I had to learn you earlier.

Party Pooper

A close friend got married recently and had a party a few weeks later. I'd already planned a road trip and couldn't attend.

Daredevil

Sometimes, as a parent, you realize your kids have to learn lessons for themselves and so you let them take risks. It's for their own good. In no way could this be construed as lazy parenting.
