Sympathy Cry

Today was another first for Brindi. We were watching our neighbors little girl who is about 6 months older than Brindi while her mom did her visiting teaching. Well the girls were playing fine until the other girl realized her mom was no longer there. She quickly started crying really loud which caused a chain reaction. Brindi didn't know what was going on but her friend crying must have brought out Brindi's soft side and so Brindi started crying to show sympathy. We couldn't get either of them to calm down. Finally, I took Brindi into the other room and gave her some apples with the intent of out of sight out of mind logic, which worked. Celeste on the other hand had the pleasure of calming the other girl. After a while she was okay and Brindi and her began playing together again. You have to love the sympathy cry!
