After a full day of helping Mom harvest vegetables at the family farm, Lala returned home with dirt on her cheeks, tired hands, and a big smile on her face. The sun had been warm, and the fields were filled with life—ripe tomatoes, fresh mint, sweet basil, and bright cucumbers. Lala had worked hard, carefully picking and sorting the vegetables, giggling whenever the kittens tried to chase the fluttering leaves. It had been a joyful day, but now her little body needed some rest.
As soon as they got home, Mom had a surprise waiting. “You’ve earned something special today,” she said with a wink. She led Lala to the bathroom, where steam gently rose from a warm herbal bath. The tub was filled with fresh herbs picked straight from the garden—lemongrass, chamomile, mint, and lavender. The air smelled like a peaceful garden dream.
Lala slowly dipped into the water, sighing as the warmth wrapped around her like a soft blanket. Her eyes closed, and her tired muscles began to relax. Mom gently poured warm water over her back and helped wash away the day’s dirt with a homemade herbal soap. She took her time brushing Lala’s hair, carefully detangling the strands while humming a calming tune.
After the bath, Lala was wrapped in a cozy towel and brought into the living room, where her favorite blanket and a small cup of warm tea waited. Mom massaged her little feet with lavender oil and tucked her into the couch with her favorite plush bunny. The kittens curled up nearby, as if sensing the peace in the room.
The evening light poured in through the window, and everything felt still. Lala felt more than clean—she felt cared for, cherished, and loved. The work at the farm had been rewarding, but this quiet time with Mom, filled with warmth and attention, made her feel truly special. It was the perfect end to a beautiful day.
