Moppets, Guts and Eating Humble Pie.

Welcome back! Today we’re talking all things moppets—kids, the tiny whirlwinds who can turn a calm room into absolute chaos in seconds. We love the wild things they get up to, but we’re also diving into something a bit unexpected: the language of “guts.” There’s the gut feeling—that instinctive feeling that us females seem to have when something isn't right.   Then “guts for garters,” once a medieval threat, now basically what adults say when a child draws on the walls… again.  And of course, “eating humble pie,” the classic moment when you loudly claim your kid would never throw a tantrum—right before they do… in public. So today it’s moppets, mayhem, and the wonderfully weird words that remind us just how human—and hilarious—life can be. Let’s jump in.
