I like the Jets...I guess

"Frankly, now that he's an obnoxious teenager, I find it more and more difficult to muster the urge to protect him..."

"Whoa. Someone needs their diaper changed."

"We're ecstatic about our new au pair."

"I thought it would be nice if we had a forum where we could get together and have screaming tantrums."

"Mom, please! I'm a married woman whose friends have been reviewed favourably by the New York Times."

"We're looking forward to this little bundle of joy bringing out the worst in each of us."

"We need to have a serious talk."

"Mom, are you going to properly vet the baby before you bring her home from the hospital?"

'You are right, honey, it's raining too much. It's not the best day to visit my mom.'
