Inspired by @ListPrompts. Age-dependent obv.
Act like I tripped, fall on the floor, flail a bit, ask for your help getting up. Do this with lots of absurd flair.
Did this all the time with my kids. Worked like a champ.
Kiss you all over the head.
Listen and then tell you I understand.
Start a sword fight with serving spoons.
Give you space.
Do your job for you and tell you you got a pass today.
Make your favorite easy dinner, buy you an orange crush, and serve it to you in your bedroom.
Possibly write a note on the paper napkin along with the above.
Sing you a Very Meaningful Song (tm) like Dylan’s Make You Feel My Love and then transition half way through to I Feel Pretty while wearing a flowered hat.
Darned if I know. Adults are hard to figure out. I’ll bake you an awesome treat but it won’t end up helping.
