Coffee cravings apparently start young! A 3-year-old girl in North Carolina is going viral for her unique bedtime story choice.
The nanny, Megan Mordaunt, shared a hilarious video on TikTok reading to the little girl she watches. Instead of a children’s book, the toddler asked her to read the instructional manual for the family’s iced coffee machine.
“At first, I could not stop laughing when she asked me but managed to calm down when she kept saying ‘Meg Meg, read the story,’ ” Megan tells People.
“Every day when we’re getting ready for nap time, I let her grab two books from her bookshelf in her room for me to read to her. However, on this specific day, she clearly somehow remembered the iced coffee instructions manual she must have spotted lying on the kitchen counter while standing on her kitchen step ladder.”
“She then beelined for the kitchen, grabbed it and handed it to me saying ‘Meg, Meg read this one,’ ” the nanny recalls.

I grew up on a farm south of Rawson with my Mom, Dad and two brothers. I graduated from Cory-Rawson High School and went on to get an Associate’s Degree from Ohio University and a Bachelor’s Degree from Bowling Green State University.

I grew up on classic country music like Merle Haggard, Chet Atkins, Kenny Rogers and Dottie West . My dad played in a country and western band around this area so I have always been surrounded by country.

During college, I worked at 106.3 in Ottawa and WHIZ in Zanesville. After graduation, I began working full time at WCIT-AM and WLSR -FM in Lima, Ohio. I had the opportunity to work with Easter Streaker, a Lima radio and TV legend.

My career path then took me out of radio for a while and I worked for Enterprise Rent-a-Car as a Branch Manager in Findlay, Lima, Bowing Green and Defiance.

Then, the radio bug came back and bit me again and I started working part time at WKXA. Then, I came on full time and began working on WKXA and 106.3 The Fox. For the past 13 years, I have worked on WKXA during afternoon drive and middays. Most recently, I have been handling the afternoon drive time slot on 106.3 The Fox, assisting The Big Kahuna with programming 106.3 The Fox and assisting with production duties.

I have been married to my wife Kellie for 26 years. We have a 20 year old son who is a sophomore at the University of Toledo and a 6th month of Kitty named Jillie. We live in Findlay and are in the process of remodeling a house for us to move into as soon as it’s done.

I enjoy watching football (Go Bucks!), baseball and golf. I like to read and am currently reading “The Way I Heard it” by Mike Rowe. In the evenings, you can usually find me hanging out at home with my family and listening to music or watching sports.
