Sometimes being a 💅🏻 dad means you're the punchline... and honestly, I'm okay with that. 😂 The best part is she wasn't trying to be funny. She said it with complete confidence, then looked at me like I was the one who wasn't keeping up. Kids don't write jokes. They just accidentally tell them. And every now and then, they absolutely humble you in front of the internet. If your child has ever roasted you without realizing it, welcome to the club. 🤣
