An Innocent Gesture
"Name five wild animals.", she read out slowly to her four year old daughter, having difficulty in speaking because of throat infection.
Her four year old had a test in the school the next day, so it was important to teach her but her throat wasn't supporting her effort.
"Lion, tiger, fox, wolf and...",the little girl came to a halt as she didn't remember the fifth name.
"And... Giraffe", said the mother with a little difficulty.
"Now next question. Name five..", but she was interrupted by her daughter in between.
"Mumma, you don't speak as your throat is aching. Cover the answer with your hand. I will see the question myself and speak the answer.", she said in an innocent voice.
The small yet sweet gesture from her little daughter spread warmth in her and she found herself smiling and chirping the whole day, just like her kiddo.
P.S. The most amazing feeling in the world is to know that you are the reason behind your parents' smile.
And even the smallest acts of love and care by us can mean the world to our parents.
Have a lovely and thoughtful day ahead! :-)
