It’s important to find humor in everyday life, so we should all try to be more like this baby who finds her mom eating chips to be completely hilarious. The four-month-old girl sits quietly in her mother’s lap and then erupts into an adorable fit of giggles each time her mom crunches on a chip. She waits patiently between each bite, anticipating the joy that she knows will soon wash over her.

Seriously, we all need to be more like this baby.
