I must have given birth to actual geniuses

 I must have given birth to actual geniuses

because every time I tell them something,
they hit me with a confident
“I KNOW.”

Like okay, Einstein.
Go put your shoes on the right feet then.

Suddenly they know everything
except where their backpack is,
how to flush the toilet,
or that cookies aren’t a food group.

It’s wild how smart they are
until it’s time to clean up after themself
or remember what I just said
ten seconds ago.

But sure.
They know.
