Me: “Throw a penny in the well & make a wish.”

5yo: (throwing penny) “I wish for a dragon!”

Two seconds later….
5yo: “Why is NOTHING HAPPENING?!?!”

Saw Book of Mormon last night at London’s Prince of Wales Theater. @MrStevieWebb’s Elder McKinley made me laugh so hard I almost ruptured something. Ridiculously and massively talented!

Reading Victorians, gotta love phrase “dissolute morals.”

Thought pattern while clothes shopping with teen daughter: “look how pretty and tiny that is. Must diet. Dieting means discipline & hunger. Ooh, feeling peckish. Look at those chocolates.”
Wait—what happened?

16yo (completely out of nowhere): (Big sigh) “I have been taking kittens for granted.”

When teacher handed out class jobs, my 11yo announced his "side hussle."

My 18yo is heading off to college tomorrow. Based on how I did when he left for sleepaway camp, I'm not sure I'll take it so well.

[Kathy Cooperman @Kathy_Cooperman]

12yo off on 1st trip away from home. I think I took it well.

I don’t have enough energy to be passive aggressive.

New receptionist at my 11yo’s dojo: “And which child are you here for?”

Me (crazy eyed, smiling): “Oh, I’m not a parent. I just like to watch the children, all the children.”

[Kathy Cooperman @Kathy_Cooperman]

13yo: “All dogs have Stockholm Syndrome.”

Favorite thing about toddlers: how they go from standing still to suddenly plopping down on the floor without bending their knees.

At Disney. Love walking round FantasyLand at night seeing tired, end-of-the-road princesses.
