This observation is 100% accurate. 😂

My 8yo cried tonight at bedtime because I joked that since he doesn’t like to clean, he’ll need to make enough money someday to hire a housekeeper.

“I don’t want to have to get a job! I don’t like thinking about the future!”

A pic of two middle-aged white people wearing jean shorts and gray PrideFest '25 T-shirts, standing together. The man is wearing a rainbow button-down shirt over his T-shirt, while the woman is wearing a neon yellow volunteer vest over hers. But more importantly, she is wearing a RAINBOW UMBRELLA HAT like a boss!

Yes, I would like to have “Mary Morris, All-around Fun Time” on my tombstone, pleaseandthankyou. 😂😁

Beneath that pink text box, there is more pink text saying "Share your stories at https://tinyurl.com/pride-in-libraries-25."
