Hi Dot, I had to share.

My son who is 3 is sitting on my lap and when he saw this post he FREAKED out, “OH MOMMY GO UP!!” I scrolled back up, and he said, “mommy I LOVE that creepy heart!”

oh, he just sang a song about it,

Mommy is telling the girl I like that heart
it’s cute and it’s creepy and funny
and anytime you like you can
just have it on your puter for a while. Seven.

*all music is better if you stuff a “seven” in it*
