Are you ready for a deep, belly laugh? Because other than the fact that today happens to be Friday, I’ve found something else guaranteed to put a huge smile on your face.
Funny mom of two, Candace Payne, recently posted a video via Facebook Live of her testing out a special birthday present to herself. In the clip, she unleashes her inner child while wearing an electronic Chewbacca mask. The kicker: It makes authentic Wookiee noises as she moves her mouth. And her reaction is priceless.
“I’d like to say I bought this for my son that would really, really want it,” she explains. “And let’s be honest, he’ll probably confiscate it … He’ll probably take it from me. However, this is mine. Like, when it’s said and done at the end of the day, this is mine that I bought.”
Candace’s joyful laughter is simply contagious! I challenge you to watch this and NOT crack up along with her.
This is probably my favorite line of all: “Oh, I’m such a happy Chewbacca! This is worth EVERY PENNY!” But seriously, doesn’t this toy look so fun that you’re considering getting one? It looks like they’re going for $44.5o on Amazon, if you’re interested.
Just so you know, I’m not the only one busting a gut over this video. She posted it less than a day ago, and it already has more than 48 views and over 842,000 interactions. This mama is an overnight Internet sensation!
“It’s the simple joys.” You’re so right, Candace. Thank you for sharing your joyous inner child with us!
