recently my kids have invented this new little game, during which my 6 yr old has been calling one or the other of her siblings by the name of my longtime fav oc (why? Why, I begged her to explain, where did she hear that name?? — apparently it’s also the name of a v minor character in PAW Patrol, which, Praise God they haven’t even watched that show in many months, so idk why she suddenly remembered this v minor character out of the blue & decided to appropriate his name for their little game, but whatever) & so, out of nowhere, at any given moment throughout the day, I’ll be going about my business & suddenly hear her exclaim “[OC’S NAME]!!” (& mind you it’s not a very common name at all, you don’t normally hear it like ever) and

⁉️⁉️

it feels like a glitch in the matrix somehow & I just stop what I’m doing and 😮😮😮
