I have literally said that. Anyone else?

Swap honey for maple syrup and I’ve said it. More than once.

Haven’t said it… yet.

Say it on a daily basis.

Yes. And also: “Don’t pick your nose and eat it, please” and “Stop chewing on your shirt; that’s gross and weird.”

Pretty sure if we went to church, I’d have said this.

There’s always tomorrow! You can find these and more at Nathan’s Etsy shop.

What’s the most bizarre thing you’ve said to your children lately?
