When it comes to taking care of little LaLa, no one tries harder—or with more heart—than Bibi. Sure, things don’t always go smoothly, and Bibi’s caregiving style can be a little chaotic, but it’s always filled with love, laughter, and plenty of cuddles.
This morning was the perfect example. LaLa woke up cranky, her little eyes half-open and her hair sticking out in all directions. Before anyone else could step in, Bibi rushed to help. “I got this!” she seemed to say as she grabbed a brush and a tiny towel. The brushing? Well… LaLa’s hair might’ve ended up more tangled than before, but she giggled the whole way through as Bibi tried to hum and style at the same time.
Then came breakfast. Bibi tried feeding LaLa her favorite mashed bananas—but more ended up on LaLa’s cheeks, forehead, and even the floor than in her mouth. Still, LaLa squealed with delight, flinging a piece right back at Bibi, who burst into laughter. They were a mess—but a happy, sticky, silly mess that only those two could turn into a bonding moment.
After the cleanup (or at least an attempt at it), Bibi wrapped LaLa up in her arms and rocked her gently, humming softly as LaLa’s eyelids began to flutter. That moment—the calm after the storm—was pure magic. LaLa nuzzled into Bibi’s chest, finally drifting off to sleep with a smile on her face.
Bibi may not follow every “rule” of caretaking, but what she offers is even more precious: endless affection, patience, and warmth. Her love for LaLa is so genuine, it overflows in every clumsy yet beautiful gesture.
At the end of the day, LaLa doesn’t need perfection—just someone who truly cares. And in Bibi’s arms, she has everything she needs.
