Looking at these two photos side by side is enough to make anyone emotional.
At 1 month old, Punchy was barely bigger than Mama Doll herself, clinging tightly to his favorite comfort toy and carrying it everywhere he went like it was the most important thing in the world.
Now at 10 months old, so much has changed. He's bigger. Stronger. More confident.
He's made friends, found his place in the troop, and grown into the funny little personality that so many people have fallen in love with.
But somehow, one thing never changed. Mama Doll is still there, and Punchy still loves her just as much. That's what makes this comparison so special.
Because it isn't just showing how much Punchy grew.
It's showing that even as he got older, became braver, and explored more of the world around him, he never forgot the little comfort that helped him through his earliest days.
Ten months later, the baby monkey is almost unrecognizable. But the love for Mama Doll is exactly the same.
