For the past six years, the Lomelinos have been chronicling their lives on YouTube.

The family of nine (“with a bun in the oven”, their Instagram bio notes) is headed by patriarch Jason Lomelino, a self-described pastor who loves “being a dad and being outside and just hanging out with [his] kids.”

Of all their children, 7-year-old Joanna (or ‘JoJo’, as she’s lovingly called) seems to be a favorite amongst the internet crowd.

JoJo has repeatedly gone viral for the hilarious (and wise) insights that often come out of her tot-sized mouth.

For example, back in 2015, at only 4 years old, JoJo was featured by international media outlets such as TODAY, Cosmopolitan, and Glamour. She was going to be the flower girl in a wedding and was captured giving her father a hilarious lesson in wedding etiquette. You can see it below:

Shortly after, JoJo rationally explained to her father why she was not a princess in another hilarious video. On top of going viral, this one even got a shout-out from celebrity singer Katy Perry.

A version of the video shared on the Storyful Facebook page currently sits at over 3 million views.

Back in 2016, JoJo starred in another viral video— this time, one that adults around the world could relate to.

In the video, JoJo has a had a long, exhausting day of playing with friends and doesn’t want to be there anymore. The adorable little girl, clad in a blue, polka-dotted shirt, sits in the passenger seat of the family car, staring glumly out the window.

In the video, it seems something is bothering her, so Jason asks her if she is sad.

What follows is an oh-so-relatable moment that’s taken the internet by storm. When asked if she is sad, JoJo tells him: “I want to chill sometimes,” before complaining that they do too much stuff.

“But there’s no time to chill,” she says, frustratedly, throwing her hands in the air. When he asks her why she’s so tired, she once again tells him she’s been “playing this whole time, and I want some time to chill with nobody.”

Amen, sister. Don’t we all?

Hopefully no one’s told her that feeling never ends…

Since being uploaded to YouTube, Jojo’s surprisingly insightful rant has been viewed nearly 100,000 times.

Unlike other children, JoJo doesn’t seem coached. Her videos are always nuggets of pure child wisdom, in that ‘Kids Say the Darndest Things’-kind of way.

“There’s no time to chill? This is a very wise little soul.”

“You speak wise words young one, we all want some time to chill.”

“Be like JoJo, find a time to chill….”

“This baby is sooooo adorable! She’s just being herself. That’s what makes her so watchable. She’s pure. I keep finding myself trying to find more videos of her. Can watch her all day.”
