I'm a dad. I absolutely love little kids around 9 to 14 months old. That's the age when they start learning to stand and walk and toddle around.

They fall, and hurt themselves, and cry, so many times that it's amazing that they keep trying anyway. They never give up. Their confidence is astounding. And eventually it pays off - the confidence leads to competence.
