You know we had to be back with all the weird things my toddler does. This time, it’s a mix of cuteness and weirdness. You can decide which.
Mila loves birthdays. She thinks it’s so much fun to pick out gifts and cards for the occasion too.
Usually, I take her to the dollar store and let her go wild. She’ll pick all the things that remind her of the person or toys that she can play with them. One time, she chose blue paper plates for her grandpa.
See… weird.
The even stranger part are her card choices, from the inside out.
I’ll take her to the card section and let her pick out any card that she’d like. Sometimes it can get a little crazy. I mean, look at this choice for hee grandma’s birthday…
Before purchasing this must have card, I read it to her. She disagreed with my reading skills. Then she let me know it said: ‘Happy Birthday, Gigi!’
That might be a little embarrassing when she gets older.
Alas, the card was a hit. It caused a lot of laughs and she seemed to be proud of her choice. Even though it was a weird little mix up.
On the inside of each card, she’s learned to sign her name by drawing herself.
As you can see, when Mila draws people, there’s a few parts missing. The big circle is the head. Inside of it are a mouth and two eyes. The two lines at the bottom are legs and the stuff on top is hair.
It may or may not look like a chicken nugget person, but she sure is proud of signing it this way. One day, even though the way she does thinfs is weird, I know I’ll love these strange, little people that she loves to draw. Plus, the gifts that she handpicks are usually my favorite of all.
She might be a little weird, but she has a big heart. Isn’t that the real goal of parenting?
Has your child ever given you a random gift?

I think toddlers are weird and it is adorable so she is both cute and weird! My toddler is the same way! For example, she came up to me today and said she had a nipple on her leg…it was a bug bite…lol

The drawing on the card reminded me of my niece who drew something similar on my birthday card. It looked similar except with balloons, even though it’s a crazy age it’s so precious, and love watching all their pranks.
