Boys With Soft Hearts

Hunter, my six year old, has such a soft heart. I was downstairs unwinding from my hectic month and he came down and sat on my chair and started watching me. #1 he never sits still for more that 1 second at a time. #2 he never leaves the tv room when the tv is on. So I casually asked him what was going on and his reply is still making me cry. He said that the movie they were watching was sad. There was a man driving a car and was talking and not paying attention and hit and killed a little girl. He started crying when he told me this and I started crying. He reminds me of a little boy that I once knew. He has one of the softest hearts ever, he cares for his family. The little boy that Hunter reminds me of is my brother David. I remember when we were very young and lived in a 2 bedroom trailer. Something happened to a sibling and David was crying because he didn't want them to get in trouble. We girls know what it is to have a soft heart but it's hard to find the boys with the soft hearts.

  1. Yes, my David has a soft heart. I pray that Preston will get his daddys heart. It is what made me fall in love with him!

    It is neat that Hunter has it too, you are right it is rare!

  2. I knew exactly who you were talking about before I read it. David does have a soft heart.

    It is sweet that Hunter has it too.
