He said dad why are you crying? I said I'm not crying, it's just a bit of detergent got in my eye. He goes yeah right, you're sad about something. I said yeah buddy, I just realized I have to do this every single week for the rest of my life. The look on his face was priceless.
That's a good one but I'm stealing this for my kids. The deadpan delivery is key though. If you laugh too hard they know something's up.
Haha that's gold. Kids have the best comebacks without even trying. Mine asked me the other day why my eyes were watery while I was chopping onions. I feel your pain with the laundry excuse though.
This is the kind of dad joke I come here for. The delivery matters more than the joke itself and it sounds like you nailed it.

Haha nice. My daughter asked me why I was standing in the kitchen staring at nothing the other day. I said I'm thinking about your mother. She said that's sad dad. Out of the mouths of babes.
Gold. The detergent excuse is so bad it actually works.
That's solid. Kids are the best for these moments. Mine just asked me if laundry was my favorite hobby. I said yes actually, it is.
