10-Year-Old Brother Comforts His Sister Crying In The Bathroom By Sliding These Notes Under The Door

Sometimes, when you’re upset, the simplest gestures can be the most effective to cheer you up. A Twitter user who goes by @AnnieeDaGrannie found this out when she was visiting her family in Virginia. After an argument that left her hiding in the bathroom and crying, her 10-year-old brother came to check on her and try to cheer her up the best way he knew how. The note he gave her, which Annie posted on Twitter, is so earnest and sweet that it brought people to tears and has everyone appreciating their relationships with their siblings.

When she wasn’t quite ready to come out and talk yet, he tried again with an adorably mismatched “early Christmas” box that he threw together on the spot. Scroll down to see the notes and gifts, which will brighten your day too.

If you don’t know what to do when someone you love is having a difficult time, sometimes all you can do is show them that you love them and tell them that you’ll be there to do something fun with them whenever they’re ready. (She mentions that she ended up going outside and playing football with her brother later, of course.) People on Twitter admired the 10-year-old’s thoughtfulness and some said it reminded them of their own younger siblings. Do you have any sweet stories like this about your siblings?
