Bucket Fillers Win

Wip explained the meaning of bucket filler. He said "a bucket filler is if I would say, daddy, I really like that bow tie". Then he flashed that adorable thumbs up sign that literally makes me stop in my tracks and silently say "ahhhh, everything is ok". He followed it up by saying "if I were to say frogs are dumb, that would be a bucket dipper" (of course giving the thumbs down sign in the process). I think "bucket fillers" and "bucket dippers" could be the perfect way to describe the past few weeks.
