    Congressman George Santos absconded his colleague's office with a baby that was not his this week, so hold your children close and keep an eye out for this Rumpelstiltskin wannabe!!!

    George Santos just left Tim Burchett’s office with a baby in his arms. When asked if it was his baby, he said “not yet.” pic.twitter.com/QQsfPAo8hC

    My 3yo doesn’t understand the concept of Halloween decorations and keeps dragging our skeletons inside to play with them. I told him it didn’t make sense to have Halloween decorations inside bc nobody can see them and he said, extremely seriously “they’re part of our family.”

    My 2yo, Miguel, had taken off his diaper at some point during his nap and when I walked in and saw it on the floor, he looked at me and said: “WHY’D YOU DO THAT, MIGUEL?????”

    Me: *holding on by my fingernails*
    My kid’s school: Next week is dress like a trapezoid day.
    Me: But why—
    School: Also bring six small pumpkins.
    Me: Can’t we just—
    School: The bake sale starts at noon.
    Me: So help me, I—
    School: One word. JOGATHON.

    My kid keeps asking why we don't decorate outside for Halloween and I'm tempted to buy a bunch of posterboard and just write the scariest things I can think of on it....like "daycare is calling you at work right before a big presentation," or "Check Engine light comes on"

    Currently, our only Halloween decor is a pair of homemade jack-o-lanterns.

    We walked past a neighbor's yard, decked for the holiday, and I said, "Look at the cute little ghost!"

    "I wike that," my 3yo said cheerfully. "And I wike the wittle ghost we have at our house, too."

    Overheard my kids whispering outside my bedroom door and one of them said “she hasn’t had coffee yet” and then they both backed away from my door and it was quiet again.

    There are those kids who are sad to learn beef comes from cows, then there’s my daughter who wants to know why we don’t call cows beef.

    7 year old: one way to keep a robber from stealing your jewelry is to fill your house with tnt and when he breaks in to blow it all up. Oh...but then your jewelry and house blow up. Nevermind, that plan won't work. Can I have a waffle?

    My 7yo has captured Monday energy perfectly.
    Today she woke up and said “mommy do you ever wake up and want to say bad words”

    All the time baby girl. All. The. Time.

    As further evidence that Covid has caused Gen Z to challenge traditional concepts of social interaction, my 11 y/o daughter randomly asked me this morning, “How is bobbing for apples even sanitary?”

    Me, answering my child’s question at 9 AM: Venus is the hottest planet because of its proximity to the sun and its thick atmosphere compromised of gases like CO2.

    My daughter decided that she wanted to contribute to tailgating so she made “peanut butter spoons”. What are peanut butter spoons you may ask? Just spoons with peanut butter on them. They were a big hit.

    My kid wants a Yes Day so I said let’s have one starting now and her eyes lit up and then I said go clean your room and that’s when she figured out where she made her mistake.

    Wrote something about a toddler having a tantrum at a store & a mom commented that toddlers shouldn’t have to endure trips to a store & that if moms made it fun & engaging tantrums wouldn’t happen. I can only assume that this “mom’s” kids are imaginary.

    One of the scariest things you can hear this time of year is the faraway voice of a small child...

    ...shouting from another room in the house, "MOMMY, I MAKING MUD FOOTPRINTS WITH MINE BOOTS!"
