Kevin The Dad

My 8yo read his little sister a bedtime story tonight and they both loved it. It was so sweet seeing them together and watching them having fun reading. I think I might have a couple of bookworms on my hands and I couldn’t be happier!

My kid sure has plenty of confidence. It seems like every time I run into one of the other parents at school, they’re telling me that my son has asked if he can have a play date with their kid.

Next time…

My 4yo drew a family picture. She’d drawn herself next to mommy, then her brother and sister beside them. When I asked where I was, she said “I didn’t have any space left for you!”

I can understand there’s limited space, but I’m surprised I was ousted in favour of her imaginary sister.

Always!

I told my 4yo to get a tissue to clean off her runny nose and she said “actually, sometimes I don’t want to wash my boogers!”

You waited for a long time to watch it, but now it’s done, done, done!

My 4yo is pretending to be a shopkeeper at a shoe store and her 8yo brother is the customer. He’s short on cash, so she’s offering to sell him each shoe separately. Now that’s how a business ensures they get repeat customers.

David and Goliath was the original heated rivalry

You know you've got a problem when your 8yo calls you out for the amount of browser tabs you've got open

This feels like a hockey story where David takes on a 6’8” goalie to try score the Stanley Cup winning goal

Maybe ask the rapper Future?

Thanks for sharing Will!

My son said today that I have the least patience in our family and I’m pretty sure he’s got it the wrong way around 😂

They fill my life with joy and chaos!

Not one of my favourite games, that’s for sure!

I asked my 4yo if she wanted to eat a cheesy wrap. She said yes, so I went to the kitchen and made one for her. When I tried to give her the wrap, she said “No! I don’t want it!”

Where did I go wrong?

I knowwwww

So sweet!

I picked her up and gave her a big hug. She says “Daddy, I ran to you so fast because I love you.” These are the moments to remember.

I was coming home from work and when I got off the bus, I saw my wife bringing the kids home from after school daycare. I started running to catch up to them. My 4yo daughter saw me running and started running to me.

Must be 😂

I feel so much weaker though. Particularly in the hearing department.

I've never heard him say that before so it gave me a good chuckle lol

Nope this EXACTLY what his performance is like lol

Just when I was at my wits’ end, he starts playing Mary had a Little Lamb and it was actually pretty good! Maybe there’s hope after all. But it’s back to horses, cows and sirens for now.

I bought my kid a piano keyboard for Christmas because I thought it’d be fun for him to learn an instrument. Little did I know, it has a sound effects option, so that’s all he wants to play! He’s got horses, cows, trains and sirens, all blaring at high volume.

That was me the week before Christmas! Hang in there!

My kid was asking me if peanuts grew on trees. I said that most nuts grow on trees, but peanuts grow underground. He was absolutely blown away and started laughing uncontrollably.

After a moment, he regained his composure and said “Gee! What a kneeslapper!” Who knew peanuts were so hilarious?

Just as originally intended!
