I adore babies, I really do. So, when my times comes, I will have a dozen.
I dislike viral forwarded messages on email, text, WhatsApp and wherever. So, if you send me such a message and tell me to forward “to get blessings”, I won’t.
But when the forwarded message is about kids, and it is really fun or helpful, I get that juxtaposing feeling. Bitter sweet. I received this message via WhatsApp and I think I hear a rib crack! A couple of jokes about kids’ answers in class. They are old school, but, well, we are old school at heart.
See what I was laughing about:
