The chilly wind whistled through the trees, and tiny snowflakes began to fall outside the window. Monkey Lyly peeked out from under her warm blanket, shivering a little as she watched the cold world outside. Winter had arrived, and the temperature dropped lower each day. Mom noticed Lyly curling up tightly to stay warm and decided it was time to surprise her little girl with something special.
Early the next morning, Mom called out softly, “Lyly, come here, I have something for you!” The curious monkey jumped up immediately, her tail swishing with excitement. On the table was a small box wrapped with a red ribbon. Lyly’s big brown eyes sparkled as she gently tugged at the bow. “Wow, what is this, Mom?” she seemed to ask, her little hands trembling with anticipation.
When she opened the box, she found the softest, fluffiest winter outfit she had ever seen—a tiny sweater, matching pants, and even a knitted hat with a pom-pom on top! Lyly squealed in delight, hugging the clothes tightly against her chest. Mom laughed and helped her put them on one by one.
As soon as Lyly looked in the mirror, she couldn’t stop admiring herself. She turned around, adjusted her hat, and patted her tummy proudly. The sweater was warm, colorful, and perfect for her playful personality. She ran to Mom, throwing her tiny arms around her neck in gratitude.
Later that day, Lyly played happily around the house, snug in her new outfit. She even went outside to feel the snow, touching it with her little hands before quickly running back to Mom for warmth. The special gift not only kept her cozy but also filled her heart with joy and love.
Watching Lyly’s excitement, Mom smiled softly. On that cold winter day, the warmth in their home didn’t just come from the heater—it came from the love shared between them.
