Ah, stop.

A video has emerged online of a “profoundly deaf” baby hearing her mum speak for the first time and it’s honestly too lovely.

Mum and blogger Christy Keane caught the stunning moment on camera and shared it to her Instagram.

The footage shows baby Charly hearing her mum say “I love you” for the first time after she got her first hearing aids.

The two-month-old was born “profoundly deaf” meaning that she never got to hear her mum’s voice… until now.

Just look at that face.

Look at that smile.

Look at that wobbly chin.

So many emotions. Each of them more adorable than the last.

In the post’s caption, mum Christy called the moment a “miracle.”

“She’s holding back happy tears and emotional as her mama.

“We had our miracle moment that I have been praying for when Char got her hearing aids today.

“We didn’t think she would hear anything so this was more incredible than I can put into words. Her journey to implants and language development is off to an amazing start!”

People on Instagram seemed to think so too.

“This is so beautiful,” said one user.

“Oh my heart,” said another. “God bless you and your wonderful family.”

We are inclined to agree too.
