I was telling my 5 yr old that we should leave some 🍪 and 🥛 for 🎅 because he'll be so tired giving 🎁. At which point she says to me: "How about we leave Dal(lentil) rice and Dahi (yogurt) rice so he'll get even more energy". Clearly I am raising her right! 😁 #SouthIndian

4 yr old leans over my laptop as I am browsing a site to get some dresses for her:
Her: Are those for me?
Me: uh huh
Her: Thank you!
And after a moment's pause
Her: Sorry, I don't have a laptop so I can't get you any dresses!
