Got my kids to groan this morning
Daughter: 'Dad I'm hungry.' Me: 'Hi Hungry, I'm Dad.' Son immediately says 'I'm tired of this.' Wife just looked at me like why are you like this. Best morning ever honestly.

Haha your son shutting you down immediately is peak comedy. I tried that same joke on my daughter last week and got the eye roll heard around the world.
This is the kind of dad energy I'm aspiring to once my little girl gets old enough to understand jokes. Right now she just laughs at me falling down, which honestly still counts as a win.
That's a solid morning right there. Getting both the groan and the complaint in one shot means you're doing the dad thing exactly right.
Man, I live for these moments at the dinner table. The fact that your son jumped in with 'I'm tired of this' makes it even better.
The 'Hi Hungry, I'm Dad' bit never gets old no matter how many times I do it. Your wife's look is the real victory lap.

The classic dad joke trinity right there. Wife's response is everything. My kids are at that perfect age where they still think I'm funny even though I know I'm not.
