My son's morning enthusiasm is so infectious, I wish I could bottle it!

Me: "Do you know what I love?"
— ReasonsMySonIsCrying (@ReasonsMySonCry) April 9, 2015
3yo: "What?"
Me: "Holding your hand."
3yo: "Do you know what I love?"
Me: "What?"
3yo: "Watching TV."
Oh.

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Give a kid a fish and he'll whine incessantly about it until you make him chicken nuggets.
— Lurkin' Mom (@LurkAtHomeMom) April 6, 2015
When your toddler demands "pony song" over and over but you have no idea what she means so you put on Ginuwine.
