• Oh mom and dad, you deserve joy too! You can't just make life whimsical and exciting only for your kids. You need some of that fun too! And that will also help your kids out. Remember, you are the one teaching them about life. They should know how to live, laugh, love too. So you need to show them how to just that! So scroll through some memes next to them, let yourself LOL, let your kiddo hear it, try to explain why it's funny, see them struggle to get it and then teeter on whether or not they'll pretend to get it or have a tantrum. Either way, you are both living and learning. It's beautiful, really. A great way to bond!

• Mom this, dad that, oldest child that, youngest child this, middle child… Uh, where is the middle child?? If you are a parent, especially a parent of more than one tiny monster, then you know the plight of raising a middle kid. Why are they always the most chaotic? Some therapists need to get famous with whatever findings they have on that. Help a parent of three out, doc!

• Do you remember seeing your parents laugh? I sure hope so. Those are some core memories for me. As a parent now, I want my kids to also see my laugh, giggle, and LOL. What is life without laughter? And as a parent, then you know that the sound of your kids laughing is the best. You just want your kids to be happy and laughing is hard evidence that you are helping them with just that!
