Parents love to be with their kids almost all the time. However, we all know that some parents also have to work so they can provide the needs of their children.
As much as they want to spend the whole day with their little ones, they couldn’t because they need to spend a few hours working. Whether it’s a work-from-home setup or in the office, it’s surely challenging.
It’s a sacrifice.
The sadness and guilt are always there but parents have to endure them so they can provide for their beloved kids. If you can relate, I just want to let you know that you are doing a great job.
Your kids must be proud and grateful for your hard work!
Your kids also want to be with you all the time, that’s for sure.
Most kids are excited to see their parents going home after a long day at work. It’s something that all parents look forward to. To be welcomed by their hugs, kisses, and smiles – that’s just priceless.
A video on YouTube will give you all the feels.
It was posted 10 years ago but until now, it can still give you that heartwarming feeling. The stars in the clip are twin babies Anabel and Lydia. It shows their precious reaction when their dad got home.
Clueless faces
At first, the babies were sitting quietly in the play area. When they heard some footsteps, they seemed really curious. If they could only talk, they would probably ask their mom about it.
Then their father came in…
That’s the time when they flashed their captivating smiles. They were so happy to see their daddy. Their faces can surely make other people smile too – including adults.
A single “hi” from their dad made them smile more.
They were smiling from ear to ear. You could tell that they miss their dad so much.
But, is it really possible for infants to miss their parents?
The answer is yes. According to associate professor of psychology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Jennifer Rennels, Ph.D., an infant miss their “primary caregiver” whenever they are not around. We all know that moms are usually the primary caregiver but that does not mean that a father can’t be one.
“If fathers are serving as the primary caregiver or at least engaging in caretaking at the same level as mom, we might expect infants to display separation anxiety when their dad leaves,” she told Romper.
Now we know why these twins were that excited when they welcomed dad home.
When their mom said, “daddy’s home”, they got more excited and they were even wiggling their hands. It is such a cute sight. Whether you are a parent or not, this video will surely make your day.
Just like their dad who was also so happy seeing his babies smiling at him.
Isn’t it rewarding to see your kids welcoming you with big smiles like what these babies did? It will surely make your heart full.
Parenting is not really easy. But let’s admit it, it also gives you incomparable bliss, right?
