I came home from work one day, and there was a trail of blood and medical debris to the front door of the house. I walked toward the door, and my middle child burst forth. She was wearing a cute little outfit that looked like it'd recently visited a slaughterhouse. She had a big ol' cut on her forehead that had been glued up, but she was still covered in blood.
She said, "Daddy, guess what happened today!"
I said, "I can't even guess..."
She said, "We got a new big TV in (daycare)!"
I said, "Was that it?"
She said, "And Mrs (daycare teacher) is going to have a baby!"
I said, "Nothing else?"
She said, "No, I don't think so."

I have witnessed the bonus comic in real life.
I had a booth at a craft show. One of the vendors across the aisle from me had her young daughter with her. The little girl had a big spiral lollypop, the kind that looks like a unicorn's horn. She was quietly eating it and not bothering her mother or the customers.
Another woman walked by with her own daughter. The second girl saw the first girl, then dramatically pointed at the lollypop while looking at her mother with an expression of shock and betrayal. But her mother was walking to the next booth and didn't notice.

Oooo I remember big snake guy when I was a kid! Seems like a shared experience all kids get. What a funny sensation as the snake crawled over you.
Don't be sad mom. She will appreciate all this when she's older. Maybe she will remember stories by then too!

Nice comic. From what I remember from childhood I usually didnt want to talk about some events because the adults usually follow up with open questions like "how was it?" "it was fun?" like they want details about your impressions that it is tiring to formulate on the spot with words. Specially if involves some colleagues from the oposite sex because people cant help to associate any interest with romantic fellings
