I know that pretty much everyone would like to think that their children are especially gifted, or bright, or that they’re going to become rich or change the world or invent some new kind of bread, maybe.
But most of us, by definition, are ordinary. And that’s ok. You know why? Because we still have hope in the truly blessed children. The kind that you’ll find on the internet. The kind that you’ll find in this post.
See, these examples, mostly from Reddit, are proof that the kids are alright. That they’re evolving. That they’re going places. And we should probably be looking to these kids in particular as our salvation. Here’s why.
10. The Lego Worm
So simple, so elegant, so genius.

9. The Sad Cake
A clever ruse kid, but you haven’t yet realized that when grown ups are sad they eat MORE, not less.
My niece turned 3 today!! She asked for a Lion King cake but specifically the moment where Mufasa dies, because “everyone will be too sad to eat the cake and it will be all for me.” pic.twitter.com/UOatqCUSj0

When you’re little, you’ll go to pretty much any length to avoid shoes.

4. Water, Water Everywhere
That is some advanced wordplay right there.
My kids came in and told me there was water coming from the laundry room. They said it looked like it started at the washer. I rushed in to find this. Buncha comedians in my house…

3. The White Knight
Here to storm the castle.
2. The Pantry Thief
He’s really got a can-do attitude.
My friend’s kid did this to their pantry

1. Alphabetical Order
That actually takes a lot more thought and brainpower, so.
Keep your eye on these kids, they’ll be on the cover of all our magazines soon enough. Or whatever has covers in the future. Some new kind of bread, maybe?
