Me: I wish.

Brought up a couple biscuits with my wife's coffee this morning because you're never too married to bust out some ole razzle-dazzle.

11: Dad, I lost a tooth.

Me: Put it under your pillow for the tooth fairy.

11: Dad, I know it's you.

Me: You know nothing. But I'm pretty sure once you stop believing she stops showing up.

11: Nevermind, I believe. It'll be under my pillow.

Me: I'll let her know.

Did a family escape room today. We had to find the medieval weapons assigned to us based on our amulets and raise them.

Mine was a long sword, 11 had a scimitar. Without looking, I told my wife she would probably have the mace. I was right.

The woman is a natural basher. It was obvious.

Me: What do you kids want for supper?

5&7: Bowl of cheese! Bowl of cheese! Bowl of cheese!

Me: That's not supper, what goes on here when I'm not home?

Wife: (shrugs)

When I come home from night shift as my wife leaves for work, it's my job to get the kids ready for school. The kids are totally understanding and on their best behavior.

Just kidding! They smell my weakness and are currently eating cookies for breakfast and are generally unchecked and awful.

This Friday from 3-7pm in central south east Edmonton(?).
Scared that I’m trucking 300 pairs of earrings (and magnets and hair clips and pins, etc) over 1500km (as the crow flies) for a pop-up event and no one is going to show.

7: Dad, is my brother competing in the Junior Olympics?

Me: No. What are you talking about? He doesn't even play a sport.

7: Just checking.

Me: I'll get the lamb chops.

10: That's cruel dad, you can't eat a baby sheep!

Me: Relax, I'm pretty sure it died of old age.

10: That's. Not. Possible!

Me: What'd you learn in school today?

7: Something about patterns. Nothing I really care about.

Me: Remind me at Christmas to double your teacher's gift.

Last of the three gremlins started kindergarten this morning. I know I'm supposed to feel sad, and I do, but a larger part of me feels like I just crossed the finish line of a 10yr marathon.
