Nothing will make you feel old quite like learning something from your children.

No, we’re not talking about learning how much love you can have for another human or learning how little sleep you can get by on – we’re talking about learning about the viral trends they’re obsessed with that you have no concept of.

Reese then broke down how to ‘hit the woah’ (a viral dance trend, for others who are still in the dark) and she and Jimmy even made their own TikTok.

“My son is going to be so embarrassed!” she laughed. “That’s for you Deacon.”
