More often than not, displays of love and care are so subtle that we don’t even notice them.
But we at Bright Side are absolutely sure: parents are better at this than anyone else in the world. And here’s a little heart-warming story to prove it to you.
“Is it you who’s going to give me love lessons?“
Anthony gazed at his daughter and moved his chair a little closer to her.
”Do you remember what you used to do almost every night when you were a child? I mean before falling asleep.“
“I used to read under mu blanket with a torch.”
”And why didn’t you turn on the light in your room?“
”To make you think I was sleeping, while I was secretly devouring books...“
“And did you never wonder about that torch of yours?”
“No... why should I have?“
”Well, did your torch ever go out even once in all those years?”
“No...” said Julia said, puzzled.
”Who do you think was replacing the batteries all the time...?“
