As soon as the sun peeked through the curtains, baby Ricky opened his sleepy eyes. But instead of stretching or yawning like usual, he immediately let out a loud, impatient cry. His tiny belly was rumbling, and he knew exactly what he wanted—milk!
Still wrapped in his blanket, Ricky kicked his legs and cried louder, as if the whole world needed to know just how hungry he was. Mom heard the commotion and rushed in, gently saying, “Good morning, baby! Wait just a second, Mommy’s making your milk.”
But Ricky couldn’t wait a second longer! He rolled on the bed, his arms reaching out, and gave the most dramatic wail of the morning. His eyes were watery, his lips trembled, and it was clear—he was in milk emergency mode!
Mom quickly brought over his warm bottle, and as soon as it touched his lips, Ricky grabbed it with both hands like a little milk monster. He drank so fast, making funny gulping sounds, his tail twitching in satisfaction. His eyes closed halfway, and he let out a tiny relaxed sigh.
Milk dribbled down the sides of his mouth, but he didn’t care. All that mattered was that his tummy was finally getting full. After just a few minutes, he slowed down, looked at mom with soft eyes, and gave a sleepy smile.
Now with a happy belly, Ricky curled back into his blanket, holding the bottle like a favorite toy. From meltdown to mellow in minutes—all thanks to his precious morning milk.
