Mirthful Moments

The kids have matured when…

Their house plants are alive and well-watered.

6am is when they get up, not when they go to bed.

Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as “dressed up”.

They’re the ones calling the police because those wild kids next door won’t turn down the stereo.

They don’t know what time Pizza Hut closes any more.

Their car insurance goes down and their payments go up.

They feed the dog Canine Diet Food instead of McDonalds leftovers.

Sleeping on the couch makes their back hurt.

They no longer take naps from noon to 6pm.

Dinner and a movie is the whole night out instead of the beginning of one.

Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3am would severely upset, rather than settle, their stomach.

They actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.

90% of the time spent in front of a computer is for real work.

They hear their favourite song playing when they’re going up in a lift.

They read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn’t apply to them!
