Parents: Whenever your insightful little ones observe the world out loud, make sure to write it down or save it somewhere. I always kept private Twitter accounts for mine, so they would be chronologically timestamped and they could go back and read and laugh about them when they were older. It became something we did after dinner all the time.
Now that Twitter is effectively dead, I’ve backed them up and I’m just recording them in my notes app. It’s too late for me to make npubs for them, but if your kids are just starting to talk, I highly encourage it.
Here are some good ones I’ve saved over the years:
Sometimes I like to get nightmares. Because sometimes they're about pirates and stuff.
I don't want anybody to know about my time machine.
Remember, shadows don't have names.
I’m just made up of little dots. Everything is made of little dots. That’s true.
My hair is messy. That’s because it’s electric.
This is my first time being five.
Everybody in the world is doing anything right now.
The holes in your nose is where your boogers is.
I don’t want the moon in the morning. Thats the night moon. It doesn’t go in the morning.
Sometimes the people who steal from the bank work at the bank.
