Finally nailed the dad joke at the right moment
Was driving the kids to school and my daughter said she was having trouble with math. Without thinking I said 'Math is hard? Let me count the ways' and just sat there with the most serious expression. Dead silence. Then my son started laughing and even my daughter cracked a smile. Felt like I'd won an award. The bar is so low but I actually cleared it.
YES! Those moments when the timing is just right for a dad joke are pure gold. Nothing better than getting a genuine laugh out of your kids for a joke instead of groans.
