This morning Ava was twirling around in circles, got dizzy, fell down and hurt herself. She started twirling again and I told her to stop, which hurt her feelings so she grabbed her blanket and walked over by their play kitchen with her head down. Harper was right there, of course, playing and she saw what happened. She immediately went to Ava, put her arm around her, said something to her and patted her on the back. When Ava didn't respond, Harper walked away, but she went back 4 times, talking to Ava, putting her arm around her and patting her on the back each time. The last time, they had a little discussion, shared a big hug (and patting each other's backs) and Ava was happy again. Papa and I were watching all of this, looking at each other in disbelief, it was the such a sweet and tender moment. They were sure happy to be outside this afternoon. I had to get a picture of Harper in front of the rhodies beside Alan's shop after she came up the steps.
