Here's today's moment of love. It's a 10 minute segment from a Seattle TV show about a little boy named Dyson who likes to wear sequins and heels and whose lovely mother and father are totally cool about it.

You've got to watch to the end so you can catch Dyson's equally cute older brother deliver this line: "I was picking a ninja turtle costume while Dyson was begging to be Cinderella for Halloween...I stood up and said mom just let him be happy, cause he's my little brother and if he's happy I'm happy and so is my mom and dad." (Starts with 1:50 left.)

Dyson Kilodavis, 5, Loves Wearing Princess Costumes. His Mom + Dad Are Totally On Board

Meet the Kilodavis family. They have no problem with Dyson, 5, dressing up in girls' clothing and jewelry. He particularly likes princess outfits. Dyson's mom Cheryl wrote a book about her son, titled My Princess Boy. It's now used in Dyson's school as an anti-bullying measure.
In a brutally honest television interview, Cheryl (and dad Dean) talks about what happened when she first saw Dyson dressing in girls' clothes, and how she went from frustration and denial to acceptance and embrace. These are the messages parents need to receive, not those of jerks.
