Confusing the baby - with teeny tiny story
I dunno what prompted this. I woke up this morning and just had to draw it, it wasnt from a dream or anything it was just a new image in my head complete with teeny tiny story
**************
Nicole had some of her friends round for coffee one morning, Gem was playing quietly at her Mamas feet not really paying attention to what the adults were saying for she was far to busy collecting bits of fluff in the carpet. She sucked on her pacifier quietly as she worked, her small eyebrows furrowed with concentration at the task.
"Gem? Gem sweetie?"
Gems ears perked up at her mummys voice and she looked up to see her mummy beaming a smile down on her, Gem immediately reflected the smile. Nicole turned to her two friends the humour in her voice evident as she spoke.
"Watch this, it's so funny"
The adult red panda picked up her laptop which had been laying nearby, booting up the machine and quickly locating a photo she had taken of gem crying after being told off for something. She gently put the laptop infront of the baby squirrel.
"Look Gem. Look. Whats that?"
Gem looked at her mummys paws and pointed at her paw.
"No sweetie, on the screen, whats on the screen"
Gem realised her mummy was pointing at the picture and gem focused on it, seeing the picture of the little baby crying, she pointed at the picture.
"....baybe" she spoke softly, behind her pacifier. She saw that the baby on the screen was crying and without another thought pulled her pacifier from her mouth and tried to put it in the babys mouth on the screen, , she didnt realise the picture was of her, but she did know that the baby was crying and her pacifier always stopped her crying.
Her mummy and two friends started chuckling. Gem didnt understand what was so funny, but her mama scooped her up suddenly and gave her a really big hug, making gem giggle happily.

That was epic cute, Gem! The picture itself has an adorable, Children's Book appeal to it. However, the story that goes with it makes it so much more. Beautiful!
You and
