Cheyenne Davis gave fans a sneak peek into the very banal life of a mom from a mommy’s point of view amidst her other MTV appearances in various reality series. What is caught on the clip is distracted Davis trying to have a sincere conversation with her son, Ace, whose sort of oblivious disregard any mother would instantly own. During their sisterly conversation, Davis could be heard trying to communicate as the son just looked back with an oblivious grin.
The caption gave no background at all: “today Ace 😂… I am really going to convince myself that you couldn’t hear me through all that hair 😅,” with hashtagged emojis for mom, motherson, family, and smile. This blend of gentle frustration and endearment just about nails the parenting experience.
Overwhelmingly, followers followed with comments about reactions and experiences. One replied, ”Ace said new mommy come rescue me 😭😂🤣,” which was maybe the perfect way to describe that child’s innocent deflecting technique. Another says, “Your face just in disbelief 🤣🤣” pointing to that classic parental expression of amused exasperation that’s on Davis’s face in the clip.
And thus the conversation exploded, sharing really funny exchanges of its own. One woman commented, “I did this with LJ and he had the biggest smile on his face 🤣,” while another added, “😂😂😂😂😂 my daughter did the same!!! I said giiirl do you understand?!?! She’s 4!!!!😫💖 lol!!!!” The feeling of selective hearing from kids was quickly becoming apparent.
Quite a few comments actually referred to what might be going through little Ace’s mind. “Ace said let me see if the new one is going to let me do everything I want 😂😂😂,” one user speculated, possibly hinting at Davis’s pregnancy or the introduction of another child. Another jested, “He said if the you gonna have another me forget it! 😂,” exhibiting how followers are keeping tabs on Davis’s family life.
The boy mom collective was certainly relatable to a comment that stated, “Boys are a different breed😂 Also, he is his daddy’s twin!” One more revealed, “today you know boys hear key words and that’s it lmao. They never grow out of that either 😂,” hinting that it might go on for the long term.
Everybody had a great laugh at this situational comedy, but in several cases, so many users expressed real affection for this mother-son duo. “He is just happy to be sitting near you!!! You make his eyes dance!! Sweet little fella!” wrote one follower, showing the sweet side of the interaction. Another follower simply wrote, “He’s so stinkin cute! Give him another chance, he didn’t understand LOL,” meaning that everyone was charmed by how Ace responded.
The Instagram post also brought occasional comments from followers all the way since Davis’ Journey. “I have been following you since are you the one,” writes one user, pegging the audience that grew with her ever since her reality TV days into motherhood. Moving from reality star to relatable mom content creator is working for her.
Sharing genuine parenting moments on humorous grounds is what Davis’s following really looks for. Just another example of how ex-reality stars are bonding with audiences through honest portrayals of family life. In other words, the pretty moments of life don’t appear in collections of perfectly curated images but in real-life portrayals with a bit of mess but always love.
The near-viral reactions to the clip from Davis clearly showed how common the language of certain elements of parenting is, even when we think about the celebrities. From selective denial to joyful rebellion, kids have their own ways to bring some humility down and entertain their parents in the meantime. Davis entertained her followers by showing this moment but also carved a path for many other parents to share theirs. In the process, parents can feel less alone in the day-to-day struggles of raising young children.
An appropriate comment read: “I am laughing soo hard. Ace is literally a character. He knew what you said, he just likes to joke with you… I love it sooo much 😩😩.” That joyful frustration sums up a lot of the parenting journey. This post by Davis reminded viewers that sometimes the craziest family moments that don’t go as planned are the most treasured ones.
