Yesterday, Emma and I went for a walk with the baby, the stroller and the dog. We got about four houses down when Emma biffed it and skinned both her knees for the first time. She immediately started screaming hysterically and I scooped her up and tried to calm her down. She was in a panic and I kept tried to give her knees kisses and let her know that I knew that she was hurt. My soothing wasn't working and Emma finally calmed down enough to say "baby". I realized that she could care less about her knees but was staring down at her baby who had, to Emma's horror, flipped upside down in her stroller and hit her head on the sidewalk. I put Emma down, put the baby back in the stroller and Emma calmed right down. She looked at me, pointed to her head and said "baby baboo" and kissed her baby on the head. She then smiled and continued on her walk.

Oh my goodness. Shes learning from an amazing mom and look what shes turning it at almost the ripe old age of 2. Aw, Emma.
Yes what a good mama indeed--little sweetie. P.S. I really enjoyed that forward of the boy and mama in the bathroom.
what a sweet little girl! It's amazing that she is already showing care and compassion at such a young age.
Emma is going to be a wonderful big sister. I hope her knees are better and that baby boo is ok too! Hurry July... Love memaw
Oh Emma you are so sweet! Whoever said toddlers don't have empathy and compassion don't know the Pell kids.
