Seriously? Parents have to supervise tooth brushing for 5-7 years?!? I just don’t know how they do it.
I must be doing it wrong. My least favorite part of a vacation is planning it. Trying to find a decent hotel, searching for flights, trying to figure out which activities to do that are actually worth it and not some lame hyped thing, etc. I am relieved to leave so I can stop planning.
