This little girl’s reaction to getting “Elmo Shoes” on her birthday makes me wish I was a kid again.

McDonogh School’s Head Varisty Basketball Coach, T.J. Jordan, just helped to make his daughter’s 2nd birthday the happiest one yet. According to his Twitter post, his little girl is a big Elmo fan and judging by her reaction to her gift, I’d say that’s an understatement!

Check out the adorable clip below!

Watch this poor little kid who received a trampoline as a gift – trouble is, she has no idea how to play with i!.

Over in Bensheim, Germany a rotund rodent got herself into a jam when she tried to squeeze through a hole of a manhole cover only to get stuck…and honestly, I can relate. When I was 8 years old I tried to squeeze my thunder-thighs-in-training into a children’s swing and it took my dad and three other grown men to get me out. I am the German fat-rat!

Volunteer firefighters were called when a young girl noticed the fat rat was stuck and no time was wasted to help the poor critter. Eight firefighters and at least one animal rescuer appeared on the scene to safely extract the chubby critter. Animal rescuer Michael Sehr told BBC “She had a lot of winter flab and was stuck fast at her hip. There was no going forward or back.” When asked why anyone would even want to save something so many are repulsed by Sehr said “Even animals that are hated by many deserve respect.”

Alls well that ends well! Hopefully no authorites will be needed to help me shimmy out of these skinny jeans I thought looked cute this morning…in the meantime, check out the entire rescue below!
