Grandparents have a special talent for indulging their grandkids. Just mention in passing that you’re considering buying your little one some shoes, and suddenly, they’ll show up with a mountain of footwear—complete with matching socks! It’s almost impossible to joke about wanting something for your kids around them without triggering a delightful “super grandparent” moment.
Take the case of Emma Thompson and her five-month-old daughter, Lily Rose. Emma once playfully suggested that Lily could use a giant teddy bear, and you can guess how that went. Her dad, who happens to work at a local warehouse store, took the bait and decided to make it happen.
Before Emma knew it, her father texted her a picture of himself loading an enormous teddy bear into his truck. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” she must have thought, especially when the bear turned out to be bigger than her couch!
Now, Emma has a living room that features a giant teddy bear, creating a perfect backdrop for adorable photos of little Lily enjoying her new fluffy friend. While the bear may take up a lot of space and require some creative vacuuming around it, it’s hard to be upset with a granddad just trying to bring joy to his granddaughter. Just look at that smile! Pure bliss.
Emma shared this heartwarming moment on social media, where it quickly gained popularity. People couldn’t help but express their desire for a giant bear of their own to cuddle with. The post was shared thousands of times, with many commenting on the cuteness of Lily and her oversized companion.
The bear, which Emma is waiting to name until Lily is old enough to choose, is as soft and huggable as one would imagine. “I’ve definitely snuggled on the bear,” Emma admits. “It’s just too irresistible!” Currently, the bear is safely stored at grandpa’s house, as it’s a bit too large for their living space right now.
