In kids’ eyes, their parents are usually “beautiful” and “handsome.” They spend their first several years in hero-worship mode. Parents relish their children’s unconditional love and accept all compliments with grace. Most families fit within these norms, but not all. When Taylor Lanahan’s family was at a restaurant, Dad showed a picture to their daughter and asked who it was. The answer that it was a mom pic was not what either parent expected.
When shown the image, the daughter very clearly answered, “Mommy,” and her dad looked shocked. He asked again; she pointed to the image on his phone, looked at her mom, and said again, “It’s you, Mommy.” After that, her dad turned the “mom pic” image to appear on the video Taylor was recording.
The image was hilarious. It showed a furry, blue-tinged monster with huge eyes and sharp, crooked teeth. It looked nothing like the young girl’s mom.

As you can see, the daughter is much older now, but her mom is still beautiful. There is not one single hint of a furry blue momster. The daughter answered so matter-of-factly. She seemed to believe that pic was her mom.
It is possible that Taylor was wearing a costume; the Momster is her, and the daughter knew this. It is also possible that the child was being silly, but she seemed so sure of herself with no underlying giggles.
We won’t speculate on the daughter’s reasoning for pointing out the mom’s pic like that. We all agree with the parents that this is a hilarious clip. The daughter is either very confused or the best “straight man” in the business.
Please share if you did not expect the momster.
