My two year old saw a bug and immediately knelt down by it, exclaimed “ladybug! How sweet!”, then proceeded to stand up and attempt to stomp on it repeatedly.

My daughter and my nephew (boy), both 5, have just taken a shower together during our vacation, their conversation about different genitals has been great, although I don't think it is completely appropriate to reproduce it here

Denise is a feminine name, therefore nieces are girls. Denephew isn't a name at all, so nephews are boys (or just straight up don't exist)

Sorry for the mistake, I'm not an English speaker and I didn't know that, thanks for helping me

Edit: I don't understand why they downvoted you, you have been kind and I really appreciate improving my English.

You were completely correct the first time, I was making a joke about how to remember which gender is niece and nephew because I struggle remembering

My youngest keeps saying they can't believe it. Rice for tea, I can't believe it. Found their water bottle on the table, I can't believe it. It's cold outside, I can't believe it.

"I like everyone!"

When my 3 year old doesn't get their way: "I don't like you any more"

Our 21-months old torpedo jumped my wife, who was quietly drinking tea in our sofa. Naturally, my wife did the only safe thing; a controlled spill of most of her tea on the side of the sofa that didn’t have the violence toddler attacking. Seeing this, said toddler commented “mommy spilled” and kept laughing like a maniac.

She’s also very fond of pulling out the top of whomever is holding her, shouting BOOOOB.

Today she also saw the sun in the morning after yesterday’s thunderstorm (it’s always bright outside here now as far as she knows since the sun sets long after her bedtime and rises long before she wakes up) and yelled “look! The lamp is on!”.

It’s even funnier if you know I’m a trans woman rather early in my transition and that I do, in fact, just barely have boobs

Okay not strictly words, like at all, but the other day I had my baby in my lap and she randomly arched backwards, pursed her lips in an O, and after a dramatic pause let out a long “oooooooooooh”

I knew then I was sleep deprived because I lost my shit laughing.

Tl:dr; “ooooooooh”
