Took our 9-year-old son to see MARGARET for the first time last night. (I spent the last few weeks reading him the book in preparation to see the film. When we got about halfway through it, he stopped, turned to me and said, YOU MADE A WHOLE MOVIE ABOUT BOOBS?!!!) pic.twitter.com/gV3oou7pKF

Me: No, humans can’t smell it.
3yo: *sniffing loudly* smells like ants.
Woke up asking myself important existential questions like: *does* the shape of a toddler’s food really affect the flavor, can the color of a cup determine the outcome of a morning and is *true* happiness arguing about nothing for absolutely no reason until ur mom’s head explodes

My kids’ school is hosting Mother’s Day Tea at 7am on Friday. It’s like a dress rehearsal for all the moms who won’t get to sleep in on Sunday either.
