I wish to tell you a little story.
It is a simple and cute story, filled with cuddles, care and love.
It is a story that does not have great twists, mighty characters, or thrilling narration.
It is a story about a little boy, in a little world, liv...
In the next couple of hours, mommy finishes her work calls and attends to various house chores while you peacefully nap. She is now sitting on the armchair, engrossed in a book, occasionally stealing glances in your direction, finding you utterly adorable in your slumber. The only thing missing before she's done everything for the day is the laundry, because she is patiently waiting for you to wake up, wanting to give your blanket and the pillow you are tightly clutching a good wash.
As the soft rays of the afternoon sun filter through the curtains, you slowly stir from your peaceful sleep. Your eyelids flutter open, revealing sleepy eyes that gradually adjust to the light in the room. Hearing you rustle under the blanket, with a warm smile, mommy gently closes her book and sets it aside, her attention now fully on you. She carefully walks over to the sofa, her steps filled with grace and tenderness.
"Good afternoon, my little sleepyhead..." she whispers affectionately. She settles down beside you, and gently strokes your back, her touch providing a sense of security and comfort. She soothes you, making you feel safe and loved. "You must be feeling a bit drowsy, huh?" she gently suggests, her fingertips tracing circles on your shirt. You nod sleepily, still trying to fully wake up. She chuckles softly, understanding your grogginess, and remains by the sofa, cherishing this moment of tranquility.
Once she is sure that you are mostly awake and won't get too cranky, she scoops you up from under the blanket and holds you in her arms. You wiggle and whimper a little, missing the cozy and warm environment of your nap, but mommy squeezes you gently. "There there, honey. Just give it a minute and you'll be right awake and bouncing around, mommy's here." She grabs the pillow and blanket while still holding you and takes you to the laundry room with her.
With each step, you feel the gentle sway of her movements, her touch providing a soothing rhythm. Her love and presence surround you, creating a cocoon of comfort and security. As you start to fully wake up, your mind still groggy from sleep, you try to tell her of what you dreamt about.
"Mwa-ma, I dweamt about dinosows..." you babble, your eyes lighting up with excitement. "Many dinosows wawking and wawing and woawing!" Mommy's eyes widen with delight as she listens to your babbling. She turns her head, encouraging you to share more, removing your pacifier so that you can speak better. "Wow, really Kyle? Were they big?"
"Dinosows wewe so big, mama! Wike, woooooah! And they had big teef and wong tails," you continue, your little hands mimicking the shape of a dinosaur's teeth and tail. Her face lights up with a smile as she watches your animated gestures. She listens attentively, fully engaged in your storytelling, "And was their roar loud?"
"Dinosows wewe so loud, mama! They went, 'WAAAAAAR!'" you exclaim, letting out a little roar of your own, giggling at the silliness of it all. Mommy laughs softly, her voice filling the air with joy. "Wow, Kyle! That sounds like an amazing dream! I'm so glad you had such a fun adventure with the dinosaurs." she says. She expertly loads up the washing machine with the last two items of the laundry, then starts it up, the quiet hum soon serving as a gentle backdrop to the moment.
Her touch remains soothing, her voice a lullaby that caresses your ears. "That little pillow really needed a good clean-up. It was all stained with your drool, little munchkin!" she says while kissing you softly. You are enveloped in her love and warmth, as you giggle cutely, feeling content and secure in her embrace.

When your drowsiness finally dissipates, you gaze up at her, your heart brimming with gratitude for her presence. "Fank you for bein' hewe, mama!" you murmur softly, your words filled with love. She smiles down at you, her eyes shining with affection. "I will always be here for you, my sweet little one..." she whispers, her voice overflowing with tenderness. You share a moment of pure connection, a bond that words cannot fully express.
As mommy carries you back to the living room, she looks outside at the clear blue sky, nodding to herself. She has a plan in mind for the afternoon, and right in that moment she decides to go ahead with it. Gently placing you on the soft carpet, she crouches down and carefully checks your diaper through the leg holes of your shorts, making sure everything is clean and dry.
"Mama, can we pway chase? An' jwump and bounce? Wook, I can even spin awound wike a townado! Wook!" you say, filled with excitement and anticipation. She chuckles, holding you tight as she keeps checking you, finding your behavior utterly adorable. She discovers that your diaper is still dry and sighs as she adjusts your shorts back. "Oh, my little bundle of energy! You seem to be bursting with life after your nap." she says affectionately, amused by her bouncy-ball of a boy.
Still kneeling down beside you, her warm smile reflecting her love and care, she begins to put on your mismatched shoes from before you fell asleep. "Let's get those shoes back on, my little adventurer," she says, her voice gentle and encouraging, "I'm sure we have a fun day ahead of us!" You eagerly wiggle your toes as mommy carefully fastens the straps of your shoes, ensuring they're snug and secure. She continues to talk to you, her words filled with affection.
"Now, Kyle, listen. If you can be a really good boy and stay calm while I finish doing the laundry, there will be a special surprise waiting for you, my sweetheart." she says. Hearing this, you can't help but jump excitedly. "Weally? Suwpwise! Suwpwise!!!" "But, my precious one, I need you to be an obedient little boy and not play anything too active right now. How about you sit still and draw with your crayons for a little while?" mommy suggests with warmth and encouragement.
"But mama," you pout cutely, your voice upset and with a hint of disappointment, "I wuv to jump and wun! Dwawing is not as fun as jumping awound. Can we pwease pway chase?" Her eyes soften as she understands your desire for more active play. She lovingly strokes your hair, trying to explain patiently. "Oh, my little adventurer, I know how much you love to jump and run. But today, you should be still for a little and draw. Trust me, it is all part of your surprise. It will be so much fun, I promise," she says, trying to reassure you.
She reaches over to a nearby drawer, where a box of colorful crayons and some blank sheets of paper await. With a smile, she picks up a bright green crayon and hands it to you. As she does, you pout and huff adorably, making your little face even cuter. However, you reluctantly take the crayon from her, knowing that she has something special planned for you. With a gentle guiding hand, she leads you over to your little plastic chair and table, the designated space for drawing. As she helps you settle down, she places a sheet of paper in front of you, making sure you can reach it comfortably.
"There you go, sweetie." she says, her voice filled with warmth and encouragement. "Now you can create a beautiful masterpiece!" You sit there, still pouting a little. Mommy's love and patience make you feel safe and cared for, even if drawing isn't your first choice. With a small sigh, you grip the green crayon tightly, ready to give it a try. She watches you with a tender smile, her eyes showing pride and anticipation. She knows it's hard for you to do as you are told sometimes, and she is there to support you every step of the way.
