    having a child with infinite curiosity looking up to you is one of the most wonderful experiences a human life can provide.

    Cherish it, it will be over before you know it and you’ll never be able to go back

      I miss the days when my nephew would actively ask me for fun facts. He loved maths as well and we’d just do maths for fun. We watched a video about Rayo’s number and he was fascinated with it for months.

      His little sister knew the planets at the age of 2.

      “What’s this planet?”
      “Papata.”
      “What’s this one?”
      “Taturn.”

      When you asked her what the sun was made of, she said, “Hot burning gases.” My little nerd 😢

      It is both the most amazing and most exhausting feeling of all time.

      It’s so wonderful to watch them experience the world for the first time.

      And also exhausting to keep up and prevent them from hurting themselves.
