An 87-year-old woman filling her nursing room walls with coloring pages has people smiling, especially after one small request stood out — she really wants more donkeys.
Her son has been keeping her stocked with coloring books, but couldn’t find donkey-themed pages she liked, so he put out a call for simple line drawings based on his own animals.
That detail is what caught people. It’s specific, personal, and easy to picture, which helped the post spread quickly with a few hundred reblogs and plenty of favorites.
Replies are mostly people offering help or pointing to artists who might take it on, with others just reacting to how wholesome the whole thing feels.
It’s one of those small moments that doesn’t need much explanation — just a simple request that people immediately wanted to get behind.
