@imc: so no more rides tomorrow?
Me: We’re not going to ride any rides but you girls can do all the rides you want.
Isabel: But I just feel bad leaving you and mom by yourselves with nothing to do while we do rides.
My wife and I: [die laughing]
Isabel: I don’t get what is so funny.
My wife and I: [uproarious laughter continues]
Isabel: 😒 All I get from this conversation is that life is way better without us around.
Me: That’s the joke.
(I’m a terrible parent.)
