Constance Hall is never shy with a parenting observation, nor is she short of a story about the joys (and the pitfalls) of being a mum.
This time, the popular blogger has hit a chord with almost everyone on her newsfeed by telling a beautiful story about her young toddler, the innocence of young friendship and the innate sense of tolerance children share.
It all started when Hall went to pick up her daughter Snow from childcare last week, and she watched in awe as Snow said goodbye to one of her closest friends.
“She had to go and hug her bestie good bye, they squeezed each other so tight that they fell over,” she wrote.
Giving greater context to the beauty of the goodbye, Hall described why the embrace meant so much.
“Her bestie is Janey, Janey is Indian and has a full head of thick hair and speaks fluently and is already toilet trained.
“Snow has no hair, can’t say a word and has never once wee’d on a toilet or potty.
“The Daycare Queens told me that Janey talks baby language when with Snow to help them chat and they spend their whole day together laughing and smiling and making weird sounds,” she wrote.
More than that, Hall lamented that we don’t live in the same kind of world as Snow and Janey, where love trumps all.
