Thoughtful Boy

l.o.v.e.

Mason has a heart of gold.  His awesome teacher, Mrs. K., just became a first-time grandma.  And she has pictures of Baby B all over the classroom.  Mason wants to make a card for Baby B.  And give Baby B gifts.  He found his drawer of baby keepsakes that I have held on to.  And he wanted to give Baby B his first pair of shoes.  They’re Vans and oh-so-cute!  He also found his favorite baby toy and wanted to give the baby that.  I tried to explain why these things meant a lot to Mommy and why we couldn’t give them away.  He got so upset because he just wanted to give Baby B a gift.  I promised Mason a trip to Target to pick out something special for Baby B’s first Christmas.  And fortunately that was a good answer!  I absolutely love my little guy’s heart.  His range of compassion and empathy far outweighs most 5 year-old boys, I think.  Of course, I may be a little biased.
