I've Had A Little Bad,

Kids Think The World Is About Them, So If You Forgot To Put The Right Flavor Yogurt In Their Lunch, And They Have Too Much Homework When They Come Home, They're Like, "you Know I Hate Peach!" There's A Part Of Me That's Like, "i'm So Sorry. I Could Have Shown My Love More."

I Discovered On School Days, When They've Got To Get Up At 6:30, They Won't Get Out Of Bed. But On The Weekends, They Were Up At 6 A.m. I Was Like, "why Do You Guys Wake Up So Early On The Weekends?" It's Like, "because I Wake Up And I Think, Is It A Tv Day? And If It Is..." So We Had To Change That Rule. I'm Like, "thank You For Telling Me What I Need To Do."

There's An Expression: Great Is The Enemy Of The Good. Sometimes In Trying To Be Great, You Make A Mess Of Things.

It's A War Of Attrition. If You Have Patience And A Modicum Of Faith In Yourself Your Chances Are Not Too Bad.

I Tell My Kids, "look, Your Life Is A Video Game, And I Have To Get You From Level Zero To 18 As An Independent Person With All Your Skills And Limbs Intact. Every Time You Hit Your Brother Or Throw Food, You're Taking Us All Back."
