Cute Kids

This tiny restaurant owner shut down a customer’s idea. She obviously has never heard that the customer is always right, because she certainly did not abide by it here. Watch the short, but hilarious, clip to hear what the customer suggested and see how quickly she was told no.

Given how quickly small businesses fail, owning a business will always be challenging and financially risky. However, it seems to be even more so when it comes to restaurants. The restaurant industry has to be one of the toughest, most challenging fields in which to work. The amount of competition is incredible, with restaurants aplenty, seemingly as far as the eye can see on some streets.

Of course, because there are so many restaurants, prices have to stay competitive while, at the same time, squeezing out some kind of profit here and there. Because of this, it seems that restaurants are much more likely to go out of their way to ensure customers are satisfied with their meals. A happy, pleased customer can and usually does mean repeat business. On the other hand, someone who had an unpleasant dining experience will more than likely not come back, but also tell others about their time.

However, one young restaurant owner does not seem very concerned about her customers' needs and wants. In a YouTube clip, a customer brought forth an idea to the restaurateur, but it was quickly shot down without a second thought.

The video begins with the little lady handling the dishes. It looks as if she is preparing to wash them after a long and difficult shift. As she is doing that, a woman behind the camera offers up a way to make chocolate milk.

It seemed simple and harmless enough, but the young woman was not going for it.

“Yeah, that can’t all work,” she said. “We don’t really…like, we don’t really do that. That’s why we just go, we’re like, ‘Uh, that’s kind of weird.’”

Proverbs 17:22 “A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.”

This little girl’s reaction to her newborn brother is beyond adorable. It was the first meeting between the two young siblings, and it’s safe to say that she was smitten with her brother. Watch the short but sweet clip to see how the young woman reacts when she sees her baby brother for the first time.

Sadly, throughout our lives, relationships will come and go. Some will get stronger while others will get weaker and weaker until they cease to exist. People will be in our lives for a season or two, then leave. Unless they become a true-blue, diehard friend, this is a fact of life. Acquaintances come, and acquaintances go.

Even though a lot of relationships will be here for a time or two and then slowly disintegrate, there are some that will last our entire lives – from childhood until the day we take our final breath. Not even the closest of spouses can say that. Of course, I’m talking about the bonds between siblings. Depending on the age difference, siblings grow up together, experience childhood, those angsty teenage years and reach adulthood at the same time.

In a short clip posted on social media, a young woman is in the hospital, anxiously awaiting. She is mere moments away from meeting her newborn baby brother for the first time. After this meeting, her life will never be the same. The person will forever be in her life, likely forming a close, loving bond - the kind that only develops between siblings.

She is standing up in the hospital bed, as the man, likely the children’s father, picks up the newborn child and starts to bring the baby over for her to gaze upon. The toddler cannot contain her glee and utter excitement. She begins shrieking wildly, knowing that she is about to meet her baby brother.

What a sweet and heartwarming moment between these two siblings.

Proverbs 17:17 “A friend is loving at all times, and becomes a brother in times of trouble.”

You’re not getting anything past this tiny school administrator. She is incredibly sharp, and any attempts to pull one over on her will only result in failure. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see how this tiny school administrator has everything under control, never letting the pressure of her job get to her.

While most students and parents interact only with the teachers, many others help ensure the school runs smoothly. Running a school efficiently and effectively requires a lot of people, including janitors, kitchen staff and school administrators. Essentially, these people are the backbone, the individuals who do not get near the amount of credit they deserve.

When it comes to school administrators, they have extremely important jobs. They ensure all files and paperwork are correct, so every student and teacher has what they need to be successful. If not for them and their hard work and extreme and diligent attention to detail, every other person’s job would be significantly more difficult.

A hysterical clip posted on YouTube captures the importance of a school administrator’s work. This young lady knows her job inside and out, and even backward and forward. The video starts with the tiny school administrator dressing down the woman behind the camera. She informs the woman behind the camera that because of her actions, the school is now on lockdown, strictly as a precaution. But it’s abundantly clear that she will not tolerate such carelessness in the future.

Later in the video, the school administrator proceeds to ask a laundry list of questions about the woman behind the camera and her daughter, whom she wants to enroll in kindergarten. These questions, which at first seem unnecessary, are important to determine how and what she will do in the classroom.

By the end of the long, drawn-out set of questions, the school administrator and the woman behind the camera are on much better terms than when they first started.  

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

These sweet youngsters tried to be helpful. They wanted to believe that what they were doing was helping their mother. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see what these two children were doing, and what they thought they were accomplishing for their mom.

Everyone wants to be somewhere and with people who appreciate and love them. People want to be in a place where they feel like they belong and where what they say and do matters. How awful would it be to be somewhere and with people who completely disregard and ignore your opinions and contributions?

That’s one of the reasons why it’s always important and necessary to acknowledge others and be appreciative of what they do. I mean, how difficult is it to say, “Thank you”? Apparently, given how little people say it, it must be rather challenging. Also, looking down on someone for this or that reason is one of the worst, most soul-crushing things people regularly do to one another. Just show people kindness and appreciation every so often.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a mother walked in on her two children as they were trying to clean her minivan with bubbles. Both of the little ones wholeheartedly believed that what they were doing would help their mother and her dirty van.

As the video begins, the mother comes across the empty bottle of bubbles, most of which had ended up on the ground, with the rest on the van. The mom encounters her little girl, who is hard at work cleaning the vehicle.

Mom tries to feign excitement, not wanting to discourage their sweet and loving effort.

“Oh, you guys are cleaning my car with bubble soap,” the mother states.

“It cleaning it,” the little girl earnestly responds.

The little girl added that now that the van was being cleaned, their mother could be happy. She had no other concern than her mother’s happiness.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not be turned away from it.”

This little girl won’t take a bite until finishing her sweet prayers. The child has learned that before eating, it’s important and necessary to give the Lord thanks and show Him appreciation for what He has done in our lives, and for the food on the table before us. Watch the short but powerful clip to see and listen to the young woman pray before eating.

Reading the Bible regularly and studying His word are crucial for understanding, learning about and gaining insight into the nature of God and for our walk with Him. While all of that is certainly true, prayer, many would wholeheartedly agree, is even more important. It’s an opportunity to communicate with the Creator of the universe – to share with Him our hopes, dreams, fears and even make requests of Him.

However, prayer should not always be about asking Him for this or that. Yes, we should bring our concerns and worries to Him, laying them at His feet. But Christians should also regularly express our thanks and gratitude for all that He has done, and for the many blessings in our lives. And there is no better time to express that gratitude and thankfulness than right before consuming a meal.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a young woman prays right before her meal, and her prayer is likely to be one of the sweetest, most precious things you’ve ever seen or heard.  It’s clear that this little lady has been taught well, with her parents likely demonstrating this practice many times right in front of her.

During the series of prayers in which the little girl is shown doing, she goes through a laundry list of things, expressing her gratitude for this and that, as an untouched plate of food sits on the table right in front of her.

Colossians 3:17 “And whatever you do, in word or act, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving praise to God the Father through him.”

Baby and dog trying to be noticed by mom. Still figuring out who wants attention more.

This little one’s adorable struggle to stay awake is pure gold. The youngster was desperately fighting sleep with everything it had, and refused to give in, making for a display that is almost too cute. Watch the short but precious clip to see the child’s repeated and hysterical attempts to stay awake.

As all parents know, children need periodic naps throughout the day. They use a lot of energy running around doing this and that, wearing out Mom and Dad, who desperately try to keep up with their little one. Also, sleep is crucial for a child’s growth, which, parents also know, children tend to do rather quickly.

So, while children need a fair amount of sleep, especially during the first couple of years of their lives, they rarely, if ever, want to lie down for a nap. Many children will fight Mom and Dad tooth and nail as they are being put down for a nap. Now, that is a situation that makes no sense to anyone. The majority of the population would love it if someone told them to go to sleep for a couple of hours. Who wouldn’t want that?

Anyway, children typically don't want to take a nap, even if it’s clear they could use one. They can be extremely hard-headed and definite in this particular instance. This hysterical video shows a little one enjoying some time in a jumper. She seems to be having the time of her life, jumping around and enjoying some alone time.

However, out of nowhere, she gets tired. But she refuses to give in and stop playing. She wants to continue jumping and will not let sleep get in the way. The child and sleep go back and forth. 

This ends up being quite a battle, and it’s unclear who wins, but I think everyone can pretty much guess who will eventually come out on top here.

Proverbs 3:24 “When you take your rest, you will have no fear, and on your bed sleep will be sweet to you.”

A child and a dog battle one another for attention, and it’s hilarious. The two go back and forth in this fierce competition, in which neither clearly wants to give an inch or back down. Watch this short but hysterical clip to see and hear how these two fight for attention.

Becoming a parent is a huge, massive and life-changing event. Nothing will ever be the same after welcoming a little one into your life and home. Yes, there will be some big adjustments that will need to be made, but it is one of, if not the biggest, blessings anyone can experience in this life.

While all children are an absolute blessing, being a parent comes with a whole host of responsibilities and obligations. Parents are charged with providing for that little one, taking care of and attending to their needs, whatever they might be. As every parent knows, children require a lot of attention. Turn your head or leave them unattended for even a moment, and it’s hard to tell what kind of trouble they could get themselves into.

One clip perfectly and hilariously captures the massive amount of attention children demand from their parents, and how they want their needs and desires fulfilled in a timely fashion. If they are not met quickly and to the little one’s liking, the parents and everyone around them will suffer the consequences. Sadly, the repercussions for not doing so fast enough will be loud for the parents and everyone else in the vicinity.

A child standing in a playpen begins yelling, obviously hoping to get someone’s attention. But the youngster is not the only one who would appreciate some immediate attention. A canine resting comfortably follows the child’s lead and joins in, screeching as well. The two go back and forth, creating a hysterical chorus of screams.

In the end, while it’s not depicted in the video, I’m guessing the child received attention first, and the dog came in a distant second place.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

You won’t believe the hilarious deal this little one just proposed. His terms and demands may need to be worked through and examined before an agreement can be reached. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear what the young man proposed and his follow-up terms throughout the negotiating process.

In nearly every area of life, it’s beneficial to know how to make a deal with someone. It does not matter whether it’s a prime minister or a president working on a multi-party international agreement, a local business owner discussing terms with a vendor or a student haggling with a teacher for an extension on a paper; knowing how to read and deal with people will be helpful.

Communication is key, and knowing how to do it properly and efficiently is what makes and seals deals. Both parties have to understand what the other is trying to accomplish, what their needs are, and then come to some kind of an agreement, a compromise. Both parties get a little bit of what they wanted, but when they communicate their happiness with the deal, all that is left is a firm handshake.  

In a clip posted on YouTube, a young man had a proposal for his mother, and it was quite a deal. He knew what he wanted, and so he had to figure out what she wanted and what she was willing to give up to reach a compromise.

“If you give me a snack, I will be so nice,” the young man said to his mother.

That is one heck of a proposal. He gets something to eat immediately, and his mother gets a well-behaved young man. That sounds like a win-win to me. Well, his mother gave some pushback and did not immediately give in to his demands.

This process went on for a while, and it’s unclear if the two parties ever reached an agreement. Either way, this was a hilarious and sweet video.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not be turned away from it.”

This little girl’s hysterical response has everyone except her dad laughing. The young woman responded with a most unexpected and hilarious statement when challenged by her father. Watch this short but laugh-out-loud clip to hear the comment she made during a somewhat heated and contentious back-and-forth with her dad.

Children do not have a filter. That process in which people sift through, select, augment and even delete the thoughts that crop up in our minds before they make their way out of our mouths is not something children have developed yet. As every parent and really anyone who has ever been around a young child knows, they will and do say anything.

Youngsters are brutally honest, and they don’t even realize it, either.  If you ever want a blunt and straightforward answer about anything, ask a child. However, proceed with caution and use this system sparingly. Of course, just be prepared because you may not like what is said. Your feelings and your ego are likely to be damaged as the little one responds to the inquiry.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a little girl and her father, who is behind the camera, are talking about her choice of playmates. It’s a conversation that quickly gets somewhat contentious, especially considering what the little girl said that gave her father pause and cause for concern.
“Why don’t you invite a girl over to play?” Dad asks the child.

Without missing a beat, the little one fires back at her dad’s absurd suggestion.

“No, I don’t like girls come over, ever,” she said. “I like boys come here.”

Dad is understandably more than a little worried by his daughter’s response about boys coming over to play.

“Hey, I don’t want you playing with boys,” Dad tells the young lady.

What she says next will have you laughing out loud because it is so unexpected.

“I love them, father,” the girl responds to her dad.

“Oh my,” Dad says.

He knows, from her response, that he’s got his work cut out for him.

Proverbs 22:6 “Train up a child in the way he should go, and even when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

I didn't have money for a new bike for her birthday so I found one for her that was used. This was her reaction. Credit: @carolinekatelynnb

This girl’s heartfelt reaction to her birthday gift will melt your heart. The young woman became emotional almost instantly after her present was revealed. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see the young lady’s reaction, which will likely make you shed a tear or two.

For many people, they can never have enough. Finding satisfaction and contentment is an impossibility. They are constantly striving and working toward something more, something else. If they just get this or that, then they will truly be happy. At that point, they will finally be able to enjoy all that they have acquired. But does that ever really happen? Of course not.

Sadly, those types of people rarely, if ever, stop and just appreciate all the blessings in their lives. Instead, they are always focused on getting more of this and that. That would be an unfortunate and disappointing, not to mention tiring, way to live life. Additionally, no one wants to be around someone who is ungrateful and acts like a spoiled, entitled brat whenever something doesn’t go their way or they don’t get what they want immediately.

That’s why it’s always powerful and moving to see someone who is genuinely grateful for what they’ve been given. A child, who was gifted a bike on her birthday, became emotional. The tears started flowing moments after she laid eyes on her new set of wheels.

In addition to springing a leak from her eyes, the girl rushes up to the woman behind the camera, and the two share a warm, loving embrace. During the hug, she informed the young woman that the bike is “not brand new, but it’s the best I could do.”

Whether the bike was new or not didn’t matter to her at all. She was grateful for what she had been given and for someone who loved her enough to get her a bike. What a beautiful display of gratitude!

1 Chronicles 16:34 “Oh give thanks to the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endures forever.”

This young mother had two big surprises for her babysitter. She was very thorough and open about what she planned to do and what she expected from the babysitter, but she left out one rather significant detail. Watch the short but hysterical clip of this mother interacting with her sitter before leaving her child in temporary care.

Most parents would like nothing more than to spend every waking hour with their children. While those youngsters may get on your last nerve and drive you a little batty now and then, no parent would trade time with their little ones for anything in the world. Once that time is gone, it’s gone forever and can never be recovered. So, make them count.

However, being with your kids 24/7 is not really possible. People have to make a living, and so they have jobs they scurry off to five days a week. Working parents of children who are not of school age must make childcare arrangements. When grandma and grandpa are unavailable, a trusted, capable babysitter is the next most logical option.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a young woman playing pretend is a mother about to go to work. However, before she rushes off to her place of employment, she has a quick, forthright and detailed conversation with the woman she is leaving her youngster with while she is out working hard for the money.

“I’m going to do some chores, usually, I can’t do chores,” she said. “I can’t take care of the baby, so I’m going to need you to take care of the baby for me.”

That seems straightforward enough, but that is not all. She wants only to hear good things about her child when she returns.

“I want to hear a good report,” she told the sitter.

But when it comes time to put the child in the babysitter’s care, it becomes clear that this babysitter’s job is going to be much more challenging than initially thought. Instead of one child, the young mother actually has three - two more than the babysitter was led to believe. The mother kind of forgot.

“Oh yeah, I’m going to need you to babysit all my three babies,” she said.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

We used a laundry basket as a sled. My husband is pushing my son in the basket on the ice.

A teacher shared her students' comments, and you’ll be cracking up. The youngsters’ statements, in addition to being hilarious, perfectly capture their unique perspective and creative outlook on the world. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear what the elementary students had to say on a variety of topics.

Teaching is an important, essential and noble profession. The men and women who work in education touch and impact young lives every single day. What they say and do in the classroom will have a long-lasting effect on the next generation. Their actions matter greatly. There aren’t many other jobs that can impact the future as much as teaching.

Although teaching is a critically important profession, it is still a job. You won’t be surprised to learn that teachers also have their ups and downs, good days and bad days. The profession has its good points, but it also has drawbacks. But for all the negatives someone could say about the teaching profession, the biggest incentive has to be the chance to work and impact others. Also, those students are good for a belly laugh or two every once in a while. You can never be sure what they will say next.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a teacher recites all the hilarious things her fifth-grade students said in just one week. In addition to being incredibly hilarious, they are also surprisingly witty.

“We were working pretty quietly, and I just heard this student mumble under their breath, and they said, ‘I’m having some technical difficulties with my intelligence,’” the teacher said.

“I had a student come up to me, and she goes, ‘High five!’” the educator recalled. “And I said, ‘That’s two fingers.’  And she goes, ‘Roman numerals.’”

She also said that a teacher approached her desk after a lesson, excitedly stating that she had learned something. When asked specifically what she had learned, she answered that she had forgotten.

When working with children, you can never be sure what will come out of their mouths.

Proverbs 18:15 “The heart of the man of good sense gets knowledge; the ear of the wise is searching for knowledge.”
