Video: Toddler's Thoughts on Friendship Is What We Need To Hear Today
Kids often say the darnedest things; their unsolicited advice sometimes cracks everyone up, and we love them for that. Even Instagram mom Katy Robin experienced something similar with her daughter Emi. Her toddler's wise words left her emotional rather than surprised. In their Instagram video, the mom wells up upon hearing the toddler's 'thoughts on friendship.' Hear their heart-touching conversation in the clip to understand the true meaning of friendship from a child's perspective.
It was a tear-jerking moment for Katy Robin (@katyrobinbird) when she heard Emi's 'thoughts on friendship' while 'biking home from preschool.' Their heartfelt conversation was a 'reminder' of what real friends are like. The toddler's friendship video starts with 3-year-old Emi politely expressing her desire to have a 'playdate with Frankie because she's so funny.'
The mom appreciates her wish, saying, 'Good friends bring out the best in us,' and the toddler could not agree more. Emi goes on to explain that when she is 'super scared,' she runs over to Frankie. And what do you think Frankie does? Calm down Emi? No. She does something even better. Frankie laughs when Emi is crying. As a result, Emi laughs and they get 'better and better and better and better.' That is why Frankie is her best friend in the 'entire world.' For Emi, Frankie is 'the special-est.' This light-hearted conversation leaves the mom happy yet emotional.
Emi's wise words in the toddler's friendship video struck a chord even with the netizens. Many commented on the post, with one person saying, 'This child has the wisdom of a gentle old soul. I love her and everything about her!' While another added, 'She has seriously amazing awareness and communication for a three-year-old! Wow! And obviously she is also a total love. Thanks for sharing.' Some users even admired Emi for being good at 'expressing' herself and 'articulating her feelings.' The adorable video has more than 346K likes on Instagram, thanks to Emi's words of wisdom.
