There’s no way to get around it. Kids are weird. It’s really weird. If you’re lucky, it happens at home, behind closed doors, where the neighbors can’t see it. Unless you’re Jeni Boysen. A mom in Cedar Rapids, Iowa received a text from her neighbor telling her that her 2-year-old was up to no good.
The mom decided to take a quick shower.
Dax was happily watching the show in the other room. What could go wrong? She thought.
A lot.
Dax decided quickly that he was over her. He decided to get rid of all his clothing and go around the house.
He decided to take up residence after finding a good hiding spot.

“Your kid is naked in your window,” the text read, along with a photo of Dax standing naked as a jaybird in an upstairs window.
“Not to send you a photo,” the text continued. “But I looked up when I got home and there he was.”
The boy’s mom could not stop laughing.
“Ya know. Sometimes you think you’re doing okay at life and then you get a message like this from a neighbor,” she later wrote on Facebook. “I just cried I laughed so hard. This is exactly the laughter I needed tonight.”
It’s what a lot of other people on Facebook needed.
Boysen’s post has climbed to more than 135K shares since he shared the photo.
It’s gotten a lot of comments from people who know what it’s like to be a parent of a naked child.
“I have one of these of my kid too!” wrote one mom.
“LOL this is hilarious!!” wrote another. “Sounds like something one of my boys would do!!”
“This is the best laugh I’ve had in a while,” someone else added. “What a good neighborhood!”
Dax’s little window was quite creative when it came to the list of weird and random things kids do.
He’s confident in who he is, and hasn’t yet developed a fear of heights, which are two things he really has going for him. We think it’s safe to say that he’s got some pretty advanced Hide and Seek skills at 2.
