The size of a grandpa's heart is directly proportional to the size of the teddy bear he buys.

Sure, the science behind that is *technically* unproven, but the evidence is ample. Take, for example, Madeline Jane's grandfather, who recently bought the 5 month-old an obscenely large teddy bear.

Madeline's grandfather was inspired to buy her the teddy bear after he discovered the enormous bear at the Costco where he works. Shortly after, Sabrina Gonzalez, the child's mother, received a text from her father stating that he had bought the child the bear.

He struggled to get it into the car and home, but magically, the bear survived the journey.

And Madeline could't be happier. She nearly loses it every time she comes into contact with the soft, monstrous beast.

Were it to come to life, it would easily eat her alive. Let's compare and contrast.

The photo has since received over 42,000 retweets and 63,000 shares.

All across Twitter, people are falling in love with this tiny baby and her grandfather. Sadly, neither are available for rent.
