Heart of Gold

My neice has the sweetest heart.

The table was set for 7 ppl...but as I was half way finished through my dinner I noticed that my mom didn't have a seat. So, when I noticed that she was ready to eat... I moved myself to the couch.

My neice came up and asked 'Why are you sitting here?' and although, I was a bit upset that there was no room at the table for everyone..or no one even noticed that I had moved except for her.. I just hid being upset and told her 'There's no room at the table'.

She then pointed at the seat that I used to be (which was still empty because my mom hadn't sat down) and said 'Why don't you sit there?'... and I replied back 'Because that's for grandma'.

She then pointed at her seat and said 'Why don't you sit over there?' ...and I smiled at her and said 'That's your seat'.

She walked away and I finished up my dinner and watched TV....and then I heard my sister say.. 'Lan Anh. What are you doing? ...are you trying to make room for Lucy?'

I looked up and she had moved another chair to the table. This lil 3 year old was trying to make room for me.

I love that lil girl so much.
