#MiddleAge #IUsedToBeCool

The children are thoroughly unimpressed by my soulful rendition of Khia's classic.

All you kiddos tidy your rooms like this
Clean those toys, don't stop, don't miss

All you kiddos tidy your rooms like this
Clean those toys, don't stop, don't miss

Pick up
Your books, your clothes, your room
Just like that

The children are thoroughly unimpressed by my soulful rendition of Missy Elliott's classic.

All you kiddos tidy your rooms like this
Clean those toys, don't stop, don't miss

All you kiddos tidy your rooms like this
Clean those toys, don't stop, don't miss

Pick up
Your books, your clothes, your room

#Parenting #IUsedToBeCool

The teens in my house are all "oh my gawd, I liddurlly did" like some crazy midatlantic mix of Dublin softened with a dose of ice cream server at a mall in Cincinnati. Every sentence comes charging out, loud and at speed before suddenly dying, smashed into a boundary wall of vocab. The mouth has moved faster than the brain can find words.
