Like any self-respecting mom of the 21st century, Chrissy Teigen turns to the internet when she just isn’t sure of the answer to one of her kids’ questions. When her 4-year-old son Miles had a dinosaur-related conundrum, she took to Twitter to scout for answers, and her internet village did not disappoint.
Alongside two photos of a toy dinosaur that, to the layman’s eye, looks like a T. rex, the soon-to-be mom of three tweeted, “can anyone identify this dino for miles. he says it’s not a T. rex and he’s crazy about dinosaurs so I believe him.”
For his part, Miles was waiting with bated breath:
Fellow parents and dinosaur lovers took to the replies to help Miles with his dino identification endeavors, and the responses are pure gold. One user helpfully and hilariously wrote, “My 8 yo is telling me it’s a gigantosaurus. He is pretty knowledgeable and plans to pursue paleontology after he retires from the NBA.”
Another cheeky person responded, “I’m pretty sure it’s not a real dinosaur. It looks plastic to me,” with someone else replying, “That is a Dinosaurus Plasticus, actual size.”
A fellow boy mom tweeted, “My 3-year-old says it’s a Gigantosaurus and he wants to know if ‘he share his toy wif me Momma?,'” which has us all crying tears of sweetness.
