I have always enjoyed delivering news to people with a little, “I have some good news and some bad news.” Not sure that my kids really loved it when I’d say something like “Hey guys, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we are going to go down to the toys. Bad news is that we are going to clean them up.”
I particularly liked this pic I saw the other day with the caption, “I have some good news and some bad news.”
