Its funny how different kids use different things to comfort themselves- some need a pacifier, or a blanket... Azriel Shraga has fallen in love with a baby doll that we have. He LOVES to cuddle it on his shoulder (don't worry, he plays with trucks too!) and shleps it around anywhere I let him.
Yesterday, Bruria got a boo-boo and she was hysterical (I don't remember exactly WHAT the boo-boo was, but she is a bit melodramatic and made it seem quite serious!) I tried to calm her down, but she continued crying.
Azriel Shraga witnessed the whole scene, and ran to the couch to bring her his doll. He offered it to her, as a comfort. She didn't want it and pushed it back at him. So he offered it again. After she refused a second time, he looked at me with a confused face, as if to say "Why doesn't she want my special doll to make her feel better?" and then proceeded to put the doll on her shoulder and stroke it.
He was very proud of the 'mitzvah' he did!
