Paul CantrellWhen she was very young, my daughter looked me straight in the eye, right out of the blue, and said to me with the utter earnestness only a 3-year-old can summon:
“Be brave! Be safe! Be purple!”
I’ve been hanging on to that advice a lot lately.
Honestly may be the best life advice I’ve ever heard
Chantaru@inthehands Barney, is that you?

When she was about 1 3/4 years old, she asked me for “Prince Parade!” I put on the album, and — again, 1 3/4 — she sat next to me on the sofa and listened to •the entire album• with completely rapt attention.
When it was over, she said: “Again.”
Thee Mighty Peculia 🍄@inthehands That reminds me to give my purple hair color a little boost. 🥰 👍
Leif SamuelssonI thought you meant she had been watching Barney.
Ashwin DixitA silly old verse came to mind: 😃
I love you. You love me. 🎵
Hang that purple freak from a tree. 🌳
Get a six shooter, and a pound of lead. 🎵
Bang! Bang! Bang! Now Barney's dead! 💀

EricWhen he was very young, my son walked into a room where I was feeling pretty low and said:
"Daddy, you look like a man with no wheels on his car at all."
It made me laugh and feel better right away.

The ol' tealeg 🐡@inthehands when she first started to talk properly, my youngest would sit down in front of people and point at them with her index finger. Slowly she moved it towards them until she was depressing the bulb of their nose. Then she’d shout, with obvious joy, “Nazi!”
The best mispronunciation of the German word for nose,,“Nase”, I’ve ever heard.

Leon Cowle@inthehands @codinghorror She and my son are clearly soulmates. When he was little, in the car one day, he sang “he lives in a pineapple under the spee”. I interjected, asking “what’s a spee?” Without zero hesitation, he authoritatively said “It’s guacamole with purple in it”.
