It's not too late to meet in the book

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, casting patches of golden light onto the living room floor. Inside, the sofa, coffee table, TV cabinet, and other furniture were neatly arranged, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Lei Xiaoyue, wearing a pink dress and soft-soled toddler shoes, was toddling around the living room. Her chubby little hands tightly grasped the edge of the sofa, her eyes gleaming with the desire to stand and walk.

Wang Jing sat on the carpet not far away, holding a parenting book in her hand, but her eyes fell on Lei Xiaoyue from time to time, fearing that she would fall or get hurt. She knew that Lei Xiaoyue had reached the stage of trying to stand, and as a mother, she was both excited and nervous.

Lei Xiaoyue's hands gripped the armrests of the sofa tightly, a serious expression written across her face. She took a deep breath, gave a push with her calves, and slowly stood up. At that moment, her eyes gleamed with excitement and pride, as if to say, "I did it!"

However, the joy of standing didn't last long. Lei Xiaoyue was still tiny, and her body wasn't strong enough to support her own weight. After swaying for a few seconds, she suddenly lost her balance and fell forward.

"Ouch!" Lei Xiaoyue fell to the ground, a pained expression immediately appearing on her face. She covered her knees with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she would burst out at any moment.

Wang Jing saw this and quickly dropped the book in her hand and ran to Lei Xiaoyue. She squatted down, gently picked up Lei Xiaoyue and let her lean on her arms. She gently stroked Lei Xiaoyue's knees and said softly, "Xiaoyue, it's okay. Mom is here. Are you hurt? Let Mom take a look."

When Lei Xiaoyue heard her mother's voice, the fear and pain in her heart seemed to ease a lot. She looked up at Wang Jing, tears still on her little face, but her eyes were filled with a sense of peace and dependence. She pouted and said aggrievedly, "Mom, it hurts..."

Wang Jing hugged Lei Xiaoyue lovingly and gently wiped the tears from her face with a tissue. She said softly, "It's okay, Xiaoyue. Falling is part of growing up. Look, didn't you just stand up successfully? That was such a brave step! Mom is confident that you will be able to stand more firmly and go further next time."

Lei Xiaoyue nodded, seeming to understand, her little hands tightly grasping the corner of Wang Jing's clothes, as if seeking a sense of security. Her little face was still covered with traces of tears, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing a strong smile.

Wang Jing looked at Lei Xiaoyue's resilience, feeling relieved and proud. She knew this minor setback wouldn't defeat her, but would instead become a stepping stone on her path to growth. So, she gently put Lei Xiaoyue down, letting her stand on the ground again.

"Come on, Xiaoyue, try again. Mom believes you can do it." Wang Jing encouraged, her voice full of tenderness and determination.

Lei Xiaoyue's eyes sparkled with courage again when she heard her mother's words. She took a deep breath, grasped the edge of the sofa tightly with her small hands, and tried to stand up again. This time, she was more stable than before. Although she was still a little shaky, she finally managed to stand firmly.

"Mom, look! I'm standing up!" Lei Xiaoyue shouted excitedly, her voice filled with joy and pride. She looked up at Wang Jing, a happy smile on her little face.

Wang Jing also showed a gratified smile. She applauded and cheered for Lei Xiaoyue: "Great, Xiaoyue! Look, you did it! Mom always believed in you."

With Wang Jing's encouragement, Lei Xiaoyue bravely tried to stand and walk. Although her steps were still a little unsteady, she was no longer afraid of falling or failing. She knew that with her mother by her side, she could bravely face and overcome any difficulties.

As time went by, Lei Xiaoyue, accompanied by Wang Jing, continued to try to stand and walk. She fell and cried, but she also laughed and succeeded. Each attempt made her stronger and braver, and made her cherish her mother's companionship and love even more.

As the sun set and the light in the living room gradually dimmed, Lei Xiaoyue was already able to stand steadily and walk a few steps. She excitedly spun around Wang Jing, her little face filled with a happy smile. Wang Jing followed closely behind Lei Xiaoyue, fearing she would fall or get hurt. But her heart was filled with relief and pride, knowing her daughter had taken an important step in her growth.

"Ah! Ah!" Lei Xiaoyue stopped and looked back at Wang Jing as if to say, "Mom, do you think I'm walking well?" Her voice was filled with anticipation and pride.

Wang Jing smiled and nodded. She squatted down, gently hugged Lei Xiaoyue and encouraged her, "Well done, Xiaoyue, you walked so well! Mom is proud of you." Her voice was full of tenderness and love.
