It was a beautiful morning, with the sky clear and the soft warmth of the sun slowly spreading across the yard. The birds chirped happily in the trees, and the village was waking up to another peaceful day. Inside the cozy home, baby monkey Tauch was just waking up too, stretching his tiny arms and blinking his eyes as he cuddled close to his mom.
Tauch, just a month old, was still new to the world, and every morning routine felt like a little adventure. Today was no different. His mom, always gentle and loving, picked him up from the soft blanket he had been sleeping on. It was time for his daily morning cleaning, and little Tauch had no idea what was coming next.
As usual, his mom started by changing his old diaper. Tauch wiggled and kicked his tiny legs playfully as she carefully unfastened the soiled diaper. His mom smiled at him, talking to him softly in a calming voice, letting him know that everything was okay. She cleaned him up, making sure every part of his tiny body was fresh and clean. Tauch enjoyed this part, especially when the cool breeze tickled his skin. He even let out a soft coo, feeling comfortable in his mom’s caring hands.
But soon, it was time for something Tauch wasn’t as excited about – his bath. His mom carried him over to the little water basin outside, where she had prepared some warm water to clean him up before breakfast. The fresh morning air mixed with the scent of wet grass as she gently placed him on a small towel. Baby Tauch’s eyes widened with curiosity as he watched her dip a soft cloth into the water. He always felt nervous when it was bath time, especially when it came to shampoo.
At first, Tauch was okay. His mom rinsed his body gently with the warm water, making sure he was comfortable. He felt the water trickle down his tiny arms and legs, and though a little nervous, he relaxed under his mom’s careful touch. She always made him feel safe, humming a soft tune as she bathed him. Tauch clung to his mom’s fingers, feeling reassured by her presence.
Then came the part Tauch dreaded the most – the shampoo. His mom took out the small bottle and poured a little bit into her palm, rubbing it between her hands to lather it up. The moment the foam touched his head, baby Tauch let out a soft, nervous whimper. He didn’t like the feeling of the bubbles in his fur, and the sound of the water dripping down his ears made him feel uneasy. His mom sensed his discomfort immediately and slowed down, talking to him sweetly as she carefully massaged the shampoo into his fur.
Tauch’s little face scrunched up in worry, and soon, a small tear rolled down his cheek. He wasn’t crying loudly, but the gentle sobs were enough to break his mom’s heart a little. She paused, wiping away the tear and kissing his forehead, whispering, “It’s okay, little one, Mommy is here.” Tauch looked up at her with his big, trusting eyes, still feeling a bit nervous but trying to be brave.
His mom made sure to be extra gentle, quickly rinsing off the shampoo before he became too upset. The warm water washed away the bubbles, and Tauch began to relax again, the familiar sound of his mom’s voice soothing him. His little cries turned into soft whimpers as he snuggled closer to her chest, the worst part of the bath now over.
Once he was all clean, his mom wrapped him up in a soft, warm towel, drying him off and giving him a little hug. Tauch clung to her, feeling safe again. His mom smiled, rubbing his tiny back to comfort him. “There, all done,” she said softly, kissing his tiny nose.
After his bath, Tauch felt much better, and the little bit of anxiety he had felt during the shampoo was quickly forgotten. His mom dressed him in a fresh, clean diaper and carried him to the shaded porch, where a bottle of warm milk awaited. As the sun shone brightly in the sky, Tauch nuzzled into his mom’s arms, drinking his milk contentedly.
The morning’s adventure had come to an end, and now, in the comfort of his mother’s arms, Tauch felt safe, clean, and happy. His mom stroked his fur lovingly, whispering, “You did such a good job, my brave little Tauch,” and with that, the morning routine was complete, with love and care wrapping the tiny baby in warmth for the rest of the day.
