Today’s Tweet Beat is all about feelings about Mondays, adorable things little kids say and do, new projects and new opportunities, and French Macaroons. I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling good about this week already!
It’s kind of sad how much I love Mondays. Love it when both kids are in school, and I get to do the work that I love more than parenting. — Natalie Nevares (@mommywisenyc) January 14, 2013
Personally I kind of love Mondays also — the routine is soothing and my work is rewarding. Any other parents feel relieved when the traditional work week begins again?
A chihuahua wearing a puffy parka just ran across the street I was driving on. I’m terrified for about 35 different reasons. -Charlie — Charlie N Andy (@HowToBeADad) January 9, 2013
Honestly unsure what I would do if I saw this. I thought the weirdest stuff happened in New York, but Charlie proves that LA can be kind of strange, too.

“Mom, I need a fork… My taco just pooped.” — Jen Mitchell (@buriedwithkids) January 9, 2013
If life only consisted of cute things children said, I think the world would be a much happier (and funnier!) place.
My latest strategy to ward off telemarketers may not be working, but I like it: I let me 3yo answer. — Dawn Roode Campanile (@DawnRoode) January 10, 2013
Based on my statement above, I believe our editorial director is just doing her part to make the world a happier and funnier place.
My kid is wearing a Cinderella dress out to dinner. With Crocs. Quite the look for a Friday night. — sarahdessen (@sarahdessen) January 11, 2013
Okay I also support looking to kids for fashion decisions. Why can’t I wear a Cinderella dress out to dinner with Crocs? That sounds like excellent Friday attire.
Why won’t anyone buy me a box of French Macaroons and deliver them to me right now? :( — Tracy (@nystoopmama) January 11, 2013
I would say I have this thought approximately once a day, if not more. If you ever find someone to deliver, please pass on our office’s address!
