Monkey Lyly has always been the most curious little one in the house, and her playful spirit means every day is full of surprises. But nothing prepared me for the sight I witnessed the other afternoon. While the house was quiet, Lyly decided she had discovered a brand-new game—digging through her mother’s closet!
At first, I only heard the rustling of hangers and the faint thump of shoes hitting the floor. When I peeked around the corner, there was Lyly, halfway inside the closet, pulling clothes down one by one with her tiny hands. Dresses, scarves, and even a jacket or two tumbled to the floor, forming a pile around her feet. She examined each item with great seriousness, tilting her head as though she was deciding which outfit would suit her best.
The funniest moment came when Lyly actually managed to tug down one of her mom’s big shirts. With a determined squeak, she tried to pull it over her head, but of course it swallowed her whole. The sleeves dragged along the floor, and the neckline slipped down to her chest, making her look like a tiny child playing dress-up. She strutted around proudly, tripping slightly but grinning with mischief.
I couldn’t stop laughing—tears rolled down my cheeks as Lyly paraded in front of the mirror, patting the oversized shirt as if to say, “Look at me! I’m fancy now!” She even tried to grab a scarf to complete her “outfit,” wrapping it awkwardly around her neck.
When her mom walked in, she froze for a moment before bursting into laughter herself. Instead of scolding, she scooped Lyly up, giving her a kiss on the forehead and telling her how silly she was. Clothes could be put away later, but these funny, unforgettable moments are priceless.
That day, Lyly wasn’t just a naughty monkey—she was the family’s little fashion model, filling the house with joy and laughter.
