Ah, Thanksgiving. There’s the food prep, the house prep, the deeply cray family dynamics. Then add to the mix YOUR KIDS and it’s… an experience. The funny parents of Twitter are on it.
My youngest is 5 & I still have maternity pants saved for special occasions*

I just paid my son $25 to go do my Thanksgiving grocery shopping & honestly, that’s the best $25 I’ve ever spent.

Deep cleaning before kids: scrub baseboards, vacuum and dust behind furniture, dust ceiling fans, scrub the floor on your hands and knees
Deep cleaning after kids: shove toys in closets, toy boxes and under furniture then wipe down surfaces with Clorox wipes 🤷🏻♀️

Make a "thankful tree" so you can burst a blood vessel waiting for your child to come up with something to write on a paper leaf.

I love Thanksgiving. Can't wait to slave for hours over a meal my kids will rudely reject in front of relatives who are judging my parenting

Let's get married & have kids so instead of enjoying Thanksgiving dinner you can make sure no food touches on her plate while I microwave him a hotdog.

serious thanksgiving question: when a family member's telling a tragic story and everyone's crying, how long should i wait before taking a bite of my pie?

My desire for eating out for our Thanksgiving meal or at least using paper plates and paper cups intensifies with each passing year.

I wonder how long I’ll be at Thanksgiving dinner before my mom asks me to fix her computer.

What is the age cap on leaving Thanksgiving early and blaming it on your kids needing a nap?
Asking for me.

Me, before kids: This is dumb, we should get the whole week off.
Me, with kids in school: Do they really need the day after Thanksgiving off, too?

my favorite day is the day after thanksgiving, when I twitter search the words "hot cousin" and see all the people who have crushes on their cousins
