22 Pics That Will Make Your Aww-ometer Go Off the Scale

One of the best things about the internet is that it allows you to adjust your own mood by simply looking at pictures. And there aren’t many things that put a bigger smile on our faces than seeing a newborn resting on their dad’s chest while mom sleeps or a boy who is excited to hang out with his new kitten friends. These kinds of pictures radiate sweetness and it’s just impossible to resist the urge to just squish them!

Bright Side would never keep these heartwarming pictures to ourselves, so we’d like to show you 22 of them, and we hope they will make you feel as happy as they did us.
