When we first adopted our dog I’d find him running loose in our neighborhood daily. It got to the point where I swore someone was breaking into our house to let him out. Then one day my husband discovered what was happening. You can see the “Oh crap I’ve been caught” look on the dog’s face. 😂😂

*Love* every line of this poignant tale by @tammykomoff.bsky.social, in which a mother follows her toddler through a magic hedge into possible futures...and pulls her back again. This tiny piece of prose poetry gets right to the marrow of parenthood. Give it a listen! #MomSky #SpecLit #FlashFiction

In WWII, the British wanted to conceal their new radar technology from the Germans.
In one of the most successful propaganda campaigns ever they spread a rumor that a diet of carrots was improving soldiers night vision.
A successful lie we still believe over 80 years later!
