the sisters

Brooklyns compassion, gentleness, and true love for animals is one i have never seen in such a small child. She hates to hear them cry at the door, gets VERY unset with me when i scold them, and she almost punched out the Vet who was examining Lacey 2 weeks ago. Working at the hospital i saw my fair share of childrens interactions with their own animals, our adopted animals and other people animals. Watching children pull their hair, roughly "petting" them, scare them, shout at them, always made me upset. Brooklyn on the other hand will walk up to a cat outside, squat down, hold out her hand and will let the cat come to her. She only touches softly and only in the right places. Today we just pulled up and there was a lady walking a dog i had never seen before. I ask if it is friendly and the owner said yes so i told Brooklyn she could pet the dog. Brooklyn slowly walks up to the dog and sits down in front of it and slowly sicks out her hand for the dog to smell and dogs smells it then jumps on her lap and starts licking her face...Brooklyn was in Heaven!
