a lot of little kids REALLY want to take care of slightly littler kids. Today a toddler barely over a year old kissed a baby a couple months younger than him, tried to wipe his nose, and tried to feed him a toy apple. A couple kids older than Him then started trying to put him in a toy shopping cart to take him shopping. There's a 3yo who always tries to steal the babies' milk bottles to feed them. A 4yo tried to give a baby his own bottle once. A toddler too young to know any words yet will shush me if any of the little babies are laying down to sleep.

The toddler who really wants to kiss babies continues to really really really want to kiss babies. However this toddler is also often very upset that Mama Left Him, as it goes for some. His desire to love on a babier baby doesn't break through that for too long.

But! There are two older boys (8 & 5) that, when they're also there, he never cries. He likes to chase them around and play with them and try to touch their faces.

Now, these two older boys have had some behavioral issues in the past, particularly that they get rough with each other. But with this toddler? They're sweet as fuck. They play around with him and are extremely gentle and help him out. And at one point today the older kid sat next to the toddler and just said. That's a Handsome Boy.
