This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm gradually getting out of the boot camp phase after months of having a baby on oxygen, surgery, and other stuff (she was born about 3 months early, 1 pound 4 ounces/580 grams).

Meanwhile, a friend of mine has a baby a couple months older than mine (going by "adjusted age") and a 5-year-old. It gives a fun glimpse into what we should expect, whether it's walking or inexplicably calling her parents by their first names (because "that's your name! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ")

It's been rough, but I think this will be fun.

What's wrong about calling parents by their first names?

Most kids don't and it's funny and startling.
