The mother shared a video in which her children were seen sharing an adorable conversation before going to sleep.
It is every parent's dream to see their kids share a beautiful relationship. When this mom saw that forming between her kids, she decided to immortalize the moment by sharing it online. Liza Lieberman, a fashion stylist and mom of two kids (@liza.lieberman on Instagram), shared a beautiful video in which her children were seen sharing an adorable moment before going to sleep.
The post was captioned, "My favorite moment as a mother happened tonight so even though it's 'off-brand,' it's staying here." Her son, Sloan, and his sister, Kai, were seen lying in a crib as he told his sister, “Good Kai." He then asked her, "Do you want to be my best friend?" and the 2-year-old responded, "Yeah." He replied, "Hopefully you want to do that. No picking hair, okay? And no crying?" She agreed with him. He then asked her if she wanted to be a big girl and she said yes. So he told her, "No crying and no pulling your hair and telling mommy the truth." He reiterated, "No lying and no screaming and no lying. Okay?" She said yes and then he asked her to sleep.
People in the comments loved the heartwarming moment between the siblings. @baylove_tha_queen commented, “Big brother is teaching her such a valuable lesson. He told him to be honest and have self-control.” @javeliesimeu wrote, '“Tell mommy the truth...’ I take my hat off to the parents who educate their children so well. You are wonderful.” @ireenie expressed, “Oh my goodness, this is one of the most precious moments ever! How frigging special that you have it on video!” @elyssah42 shared, “I have the sweetest cutest nephew and niece! Proud Aunty! And Liza, you and Ian are obviously doing great parenting! This is what it’s all about. My heart explodes over them! And I’m not lying!” @tanyatruehart said, “He speaks from learning this lesson himself. He's passing on the lessons he learned. Love this.”
The mother told Newsweek that her daughter wanted to stay with her brother while she fell asleep. "I watched from downstairs to make sure all was well and then the conversation unfolded. As soon as I realized what was happening, I hit record to show my husband that our dream was coming true," Lieberman said. She added that her children have been good to each other. "They've always been sweet to each other but also regular siblings that pull toys out of each other's hands,” she shared. The mom felt that during that conversation, Sloan showed a newfound appreciation for his sister. However, she also shared that such moments keep happening between the duo and she was glad she was able to capture it for once.

Moreover, Lieberman and her husband were happy to see the conversation between their children because they felt it was the fruition of how they have been trying to nurture respect and love between the two. "Seeing it play out in a natural setting with zero parental influence made me feel like all of our hard work paid off," she said. She added that every parent dreams of their children becoming best friends and looking out for each other. She expressed, "My husband and I are only children with half-siblings 16 [plus] years older than us, so it was incredibly important to us that our kids have a special bond.”
