Our episode topic is based off of a phrase that Paris' mom used growing up: "That's life happening for you." She used this phrase to indicate that sometimes things out of your control (whether they seem good or bad) are actually working together in your favor. We talk about a few of the ways we've seen life happening for us over the last few years.

Submission Episode!!
This episode was inspired by Brooke Romney’s 52 Modern Manners for Kids. Do you ever find yourself realizing as your kid shouts the details of their latest bathroom break in the grocery store that maybe they didn’t know the unspoken rule of not talking about that information in public? There are plenty of societal norms and manners that are unspoken as adults that actually need to be laid out to children.
We accepted submissions from listeners for this topic and have compiled them all here! In this episode we talk about accepting invitations, bathroom etiquette, being a good friend, and more.
