Having a small child is like taking a series of no-warning exams on topics - The Problem of Evil, the nature of time, why we must die. After breakfast, they move on to the tough ones.
Highly analytic/cerebral people without children seem to assume babies/toddlers are too boring for them, but my friends with small kids are THRILLED to nerd out about them. Like, holy f@#*, I have a tiny nascent intelligence and every week their responses & interests evolve

I have a four year old that fits this description. It’s simultaneously delightful and infuriating

Watching expressions of amazement as my 2yo discover new things whether that’s how to swing on a trapeze or when he realizes his grandmother is coming to visit is perhaps the highlight of my life

Raising and loving a 4 and an 8 yo. Often my inner voice switches into anthropological documentary narration mode as my children interpret their surroundings with wonder and amazement.
