So Proud!

Hannah has always been a little girl who has shown great amounts of compassion for people and living things. Isaac has always been a loving boy, but I haven't seen him be a little boy of compassion. I've hoped a prayed that he would have a sense of compassion, and today I have seen those prayers answered. I believe Isaac will grow to be a man with great compassion for people! We have seen the movie "The Prince of Egypt" several times before, but not since Eli was born. We are home this morning because Hannah is sick with a massive ear infection and the kids are watching the movie. Isaac began to cry and was very concerned about the baby being put in the basket and on the river. He wanted to know who would take care of the baby and why the baby was left alone. He was so sad for the baby. It touched my heart to see him so concerned for the baby. He was upset that the Egyptian were hurting the babies. Isaac has begun to develop a sense of compassion for others. While it made me cry to see him cry, I am so happy to see this forming in our son. I think having a baby brother, someone he has helped care for, has really helped him begin to see the needs of others. I am SO proud of our little Isaac!
