An Empathetic Kid

Last night in the car we were singing "On Top of Spaghetti" and Robbie got very sad because he felt bad for the kid who didn't have a meatball anymore.  This reminded me about how a few months ago we read "The Giving Tree" to him and he literally wept because he felt so sad for the tree who gave up everything for the boy.  I was pretty surprised. I guess this shows a good quality in Robbie, we'll just have to be careful about what he watches and reads until he's a little older, I don't want to traumatize him!
