Compassion

Tonight Owen was getting bored with his breathing treatment. He has asthma and takes a daily control medication via nebulizer once a day. He told me his breathing treatment was done but it wasn't done yet so I told him so. He started to cry and Jay, who was sitting next to him, patted Owen on the back and said, "It's okay Owen. It will be alright." Jay's sense of compassion has really been developing lately. I am really proud of him. Owen has always been very compassionate. I think too much so at times. It is like he carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. They can both be very sweet.
