Solid Life Lesson - 2020

When I was a kid, my parents had a friend and they had a not-so-nice nickname for her that they would use to refer to her.  It was kind of a family joke.  One day, she called, and I answered the phone and when I called out to my mom to pick up, I screamed out "The not-so-nice-nickname is on the phone!"  That stuck with me forever, but I didn't quite my lesson.  Today, my daughter was on a whatsapp call with her friends and she told them that she wears a diaper at night so that she doesn't pish in her bed b/c her mommy doesn't want to do laundry every day.  🤦‍♀️
Now, I have learned my lesson!  Thank God it wasn't worse.

Back Seat Driver

The other day, while driving my kids to daycare, a car stopped on a busy road to allow me to make a left turn into the daycare parking lot.  So I made sure to wave to the driver and say thank you, and I explained to my daughter why that was a big deal and that we always have to say thank you when someone does that.  She then said something like "and if they don't stop, we say "Dude! What's wrong with you?!  Come on!"
Then yesterday, while driving to daycare, someone was turning around and blocking the parking lot.  My daughter said "Dude!  Move your car!"

🤦🏼‍♀️ Good thing it's not worse...?
