Kiddo held a small shell to her ear to hear the ‘ocean’ and began talking into it like a phone.

Me: You on your shell phone?
Kiddo: Shell phone?
Kiddo’s dad: *giggle* Oh, I get it.
Me: What’s to get?
Kiddo’s dad: Shell phone.
Me: Yeah. Phone. That’s a shell. That’s not funny.
Kiddo’s dad:  …
Me: OH! It sounds like cell phone!
Kiddo’s dad: Oh my god.
Me: I totally meant that.

For some reason after that, while I’m giggling like an idiot, Kiddo comes up with this weird Muppet-like fake laugh. Naturally you had to be there but I swear, it is one of the more hysterical things to ever leave that kid’s mouth. I recorded it on my phone in the dark car just so I could replay the sound over and over when I’m grouchy.

She makes my day, every day.
