@imperfect_foods The box from this week’s delivery got turned into a dollhouse (complete with LED lights, obvs) by these two goobers. Thanks for the three hours of playtime!

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@Robertrice87 We’ve been thinking about you a lot. And to your request, you should know that our daughters refer to Ariel, the Little Mermaid as “Ambio, the Little Mormon” and NO ONE BETTER CORRECT THEM. ❤️❤️

Thanks for sending a rocket ship/boat/fire truck/submarine to our house every week, @imperfect_foods!

Truest thing I’ve ever read.

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

Being a writer is 20% Googling certain words to make sure they mean what you think they mean, 10% looking up baby names, 15% removing the word "just" from your MS, and 55% cleaning your house so you don't actually have to write.

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@jilltwiss For sure. I have some NYC-based friends who feel similarly. I’ll be interested to see how this plays out.

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@jilltwiss That’s an excellent point. I guess I meant that women are so often described as “competent” and that’s often the very least of what they are. But your point is very much taken! Example, I have absolutely no idea what the president did last weekend and that is a welcome relief.

@EdGillMD Also, the first thing a toddler does when confronted with a slide is try to climb up it. Every single toddler every single time. So maybe less yelling about not climbing up slides from helicopter parents?

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@heelsonthefield Right? Last weekend my FIL asked how I can work with so much noise. I told him “practice.”

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@jilltwiss Am I to understand this will be your next book?

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

Just now realized that the people talking about Hacks and the people talking about Flack are talking about different shows and anyway when does my AARP card show up?

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@charlee_buns Yeah but only 400 times a day so...

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@rachelsthumb Mine will be 4 in two months. It’s been a weird year. But I promise never to tell you to enjoy every moment. Some of the moments suck.

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@rachelsthumb You can do it! And bonus: everyone already thinks you’re a goddamn superhero (ps. you are).

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@jilltwiss I mean, same. We live directly across the street from a bodega/liquor store. But they probably know all my mask patterns by now.

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@sarapgill Awkward playground parent conversations are the worst. I dread them so much.

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@jilltwiss On this, the first day of Pride month, my children independently chose Marlon Bundo for a bedtime story. The kids are gonna be fine.

@lindaholmes Springsteen Tunnel of Love?

[Kristen Weber @Basegirl]

@DadisGrumpy Hard agree. Still my go to weird but smarter than anyone gave it credit for show.
