Raising a compassionate child

I don't have much to share, just wanted to share a little story. 

My girlie has always wanted a baby.  We didn't know how she would transition from only child to big sister, but she has definitely jumped in feet first to her new role.

Buddy was upset in the car.  He was tired and hungry and we were driving.  So unfortunately couldn't stop to feed him.  Lu reached over as far as she could to try to comfort her baby brother.  All the time while saying, "It's ok.  It'll be ok.  We're almost home buddy." 

She could have complained because he was crying.  Instead she tried to make him happier in his time of sadness. 

I hope that this compassion continues through her young life and that it'll rub off on others around her!
