Sweet Boy


Carter has always been one to be sensitive of others. He always asks nicely for things and usually doesn't have issues sharing. He will also say sorry, even if he isn't the one who should be saying it. The other night at dinner had to be one of the sweetest things I have seen. Tyler was having a hard time with using proper manners at the table. Once he finally was able to sit with us, he ate a piece of bread and then wanted more. He told him that he had to eat his courtesy bites of his ravioli before having another slice of bread. Carter then asked for a slice of bread and since he had cleared his plate we gave him one. Carter picked up his piece and set it on Tyler's plate. Because Tyler still hadn't even taken one bite of his dinner I took the bread away. Carter started crying immediately. He just wanted Tyler to be able to have a piece of bread. He sat there upset until Tyler finally ate his bites so he could give it to him. I hope Carter never loses his generosity and love toward others.
