My wife, daughter and I were all sitting at the kitchen table eating waffles for breakfast this morning, when this humorous exchange involving my 2-year-old took place:
Wife, smiling at daughter: “This is a really fun age, isn’t it?”
Ryan, chewing: “Mhmmm…”
*short pause*
Daughter, defiantly: “NO IT’S NOT!”
Ryan, losing it: *muffled snicker*

Ryan's aptly-named blog, Flailing Wildly, is where he writes about ideas longer than 280 characters. Ambivert. Curious. Not a coffee drinker.
