Oh Look! A Butterfly!

I mean, obviously you shouldn't compare your children to mine. You'll just feel bad. But the talent just oozes in this kid. Someday you will see him on "So You Think You Can Dance."

"I changed my mind, I want a [pony, scooter, bike, Red Rider BB gun]" A close second place winner is, "Can I have a New Year's Eve party?" Then, "Me, too?"
