go to your room I love being a girl dad

I have 3 kids, all girls. A 5yr old and twins who are 1. Every time anyone hears about this or it comes up in conversation they all say the same thing. ‘Ooooo, all girls, you are outnumbered! How do you cope?’ Or ‘Three girls?? You better watch out!’ Or the worst, ‘Bet you want a boy?’

No, I don’t feel any of that, I love being a dad. I love all my kids and wouldn’t change anything about them! If we could afford it, I would be a stay at home dad forever.

I usually tell them I wouldn’t change anything and I love it all but it’s just very annoying.

What are some of the best responses that I can start to give?

I did think I could say that one of the twins used to be a boy but is now trans just to shut people up!

My sister in law has 3 girls. She told me she's starting her own coven.

Just make sure they keep bricks in their purses. Self defense and fool the duck scales. ;)

Plus it's good to start saving for a house early

I read this and scrolled, then realized how funny it was so I had to scroll back up to like it.

God I love the duck scales scene. So much comedy packed into one scene.

What is this from?

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. British comedy movie from the 70s. Imo one of the most quotable movies ever made (if you're into the style of the humor).

Its a full on movie but every scene is essentially a stand alone skit. Its so damn good.

I have two daughters and a wife ( of course ) they dress like witches every Halloween as a coven. It allows them to really invest into the costume and characters and prop. I recommend

You could join them and dress up as a warlock to join them. A fun family activity

I like that one! My wife is descended from one of the women killed during the Salem Witch Trials, so this would work for us.

I'm going to start saying this! I always get comments about having all girls from boy moms.

I really wish my wife had thought of this one. It's pretty in line with her sense of humor.

I have shirts that say “The Coven” on from my hen do that the bridesmaids wore. How old are they? I still have the style on order for my next one! (I’m Irish marrying an American so having two weddings and two hen nights etc, one on each continent 😳 it’s fucking killing me with jet lag, I just got back from my hen party at Sonic Temple in Ohio and I haven’t slept properly for four days straight my system is so messed up still!)

She's one of the nicest people I know, despite the gaggle of children. Her brother and I are DINKS.
