I followed Daily Bunnies and I can honestly say nothing has brought me greater joy this week.

Yes, I have a child. What are you getting at?

What a thrill! SCREAM TIME is "Kid's choice!" Is there any better judge in the world than a person who can be swayed to do anything for 15 more minutes?

PRETTY PEAS

There’s a dragon in my house.
But I've never seen her.

“She’s feisty, angry,” dad insists.
“The dragon won’t eat her peas,” mom sighs.

I huff.
I roar.
My face is fire.
“I haven’t eaten my peas, either!”

In the mirror I glimpse:
the dragon.

Fine…
I’ll eat your peas.

Lord Pickles IS a silly name. So what? When a young new neighbor shows up for pickles, he doesn't take it well. The clever girl teaches him that a name is something you are given, but a life is something you must choose. #PBPitch

My daughter revealed this morning that she has a "favorite" tooth. (It's an upper canine.) Why? "It's better at eating." As a parent, I took this opportunity to extol the necessity of brushing, but I was dismissed with a wave and a "She'll be fine!" The tooth is a SHE? Now, we're getting somewhere.

A nose is like a rose.
The scent of spring and there she blows.

A relationship is like a rose.
How long it lasts, no one knows.

Apes eat grapes. If it rhymes, it's gotta be true.
