Little A Tong looked very sleepy and quiet today.
The tiny baby monkey was resting patiently while waiting for his morning bath.
Usually, A Tong was playful and full of energy.
But this morning felt different.
The little monkey curled up in his cozy spot with droopy eyes and a tiny pout.
“Mmhh…”
A soft, sleepy sound escaped from his lips.
Poor baby looked a little sad while waiting.
He stretched his tiny arms.
Rubbed his sleepy eyes.
And looked around, hoping Mom would come soon.
The warm morning sun was beginning to shine, but A Tong was still waiting for bath time to arrive.
His little head slowly drooped lower and lower.
The sleepy baby tried to stay awake.
But it was hard.
Very hard.
Soon—
A Tong yawned.
Then another big yawn.
His tiny body relaxed as he snuggled comfortably into his resting place.
The little monkey continued waiting quietly, trusting that Mom would be there soon.
Finally—
Mom arrived and gently stroked his head.
The moment A Tong saw her, his sad little face brightened.
A tiny smile appeared.
The sleepy baby cuddled close, feeling comforted and loved.
Because even while waiting for the day to begin, a little baby feels happiest knowing Mom is nearby.
