Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

You’re about to meet a baby girl who already formed a remarkable connection with the animals in her life.

Her uncle lives on a farm in Victoria, Australia, making the perfect setting for their family gatherings during the holiday season.

While staying at his farm, the toddler developed a very special morning routine. Every day without fail, she woke up and ran toward the stable to greet the horses. One by one, these gorgeous animals popped their heads out of their stalls, eagerly awaiting their pats and kisses.

One day, her mom decided to film the adorable tradition. The horses are so gentle and loving toward her… you can tell they’re just as excited to see her as she is them.

“The nobility of horses in unison with the wholesome, spontaneous innocence of one child,” one Facebook commenter writes. “Beautiful to see.”

Another commenter says it best: “If this doesn’t make you smile, I don’t know what could.”
