Kids say the darndest things, and by darndest, I mean brutally honest. Even my 1-year-old son has no qualms with letting you know exactly how he feels about something at any given moment.

I'm sure I'll stop finding his honesty so cute and refreshing once he's old enough to talk; I can only imagine the awkward social situations I'll find myself in.
