This guy knows how it’s done.
On the one hand it's impressive the baby has the motor skills to pick up a grain of cat litter, on the other hand HE'S TOUCHING CAT LITTER

Mom 2: Mine's pitching.
Me: That's my son spinning around in the outfield singing "Let it Go".

This sounds a lot more fun than waiting to catch a ball.
My wife was gone for two minutes & my son said "I miss Mommy," so I asked if he ever misses me.
I've never heard a 6yo take the 5th before.

This kid should be a lawyer…
ME: your honor I submit a half eaten bagel
LAWYER: objection
ME: he said he’d eat the whole bagel
JUDGE: I’ll allow it
SON: *starts weeping*— Kalvin (@KalvinMacleod) January 19, 2017
…and defend this kid.
One of the hardest things about raising a toddler is trying to figure out if they mean "no-no" or "no-yes".

Right?! And then there’s the, “No I don’t want a drink, WHY ARE YOU TAKING MY DRINK?” epic freakouts.

This honestly makes me feel better about my life.
Parenting is a whole lot of laying in bed, hoping your spouse gets up to investigate that strange noise.

It’s like a game of chicken where everyone loses.
I was just enviously admiring the energy and flexibility of a 3yo and then he kneed himself in the face.

Gotta watch out for those knees!
Trying to reprimand my toddler for her excess use of the word "doo-doo" without laughing..
Clearly we're both four years old…

You are not alone.
Still waiting on a female emoji with dark under eye circles and messy hair holding a dirty, screaming child.

And a male emoji whose kid just stomped his nuts.

And stop at every crack to jump over it, especially on sidewalks.
Me: Will my cleaning distract you from homework?
10: No
M: You sure? Because I don't have to clean right now
10: No it's ok

M: Please?— Wendy S. (@maughammom) November 16, 2016
I’m sure there are lots of other important things to do, like clean out the cookies by eating them or stress-test the springs on the couch by sitting on them motionless for hours. Or both at the same time.
me: Did you brush your teeth?
9: Yes
me *hands him a glass of orange juice*
9: Do I have to?
me: Yep. Quit hitting your brother— Josh (@iwearaonesie) December 2, 2016
Creative parenting at its finest.
4-year-old: Are we friends?
Me: Of course we are.
4: Friends let each other eat all the candy.
Me: We're frenemies.

You know, this wouldn’t have happened if he’d just hidden the candy in the first place.
I'm just a mom, standing in front of my husband, trying to say something that I can no longer remember cause my kid interrupted us 75 times.

“Mom. Mom. Mom. Mom mom mom mom mom!”
“WHAT?!”
“I forgot.”
My 6 year old found the duct tape and now nothing in my house moves.
— Kalvin (@KalvinMacleod) August 6, 2013
MacGyver in training. Get that kid some paperclips and chewing gum.
Me: What do you want to do today?
4-year-old: Be a wolf and fight other wolves.
It should be an interesting day at preschool.

This would make a great movie.
Sorry I chanted "build the wall" while you were setting up the pack n play for your toddler.
