Default She sort of understands love

Ivy is dealing with her best friend finding a new friend who picks on her and now the friend is excluding her. To say her feelings are hurt is an understatement.
Today she informed me she wants the new friend's sister to come to our house but not the friend. I told her that they are a package deal and you can't split them apart like that. She sighed and said but he hits me and is mean to me. I told her that he is jealous and afraid that if her best friend plays with her than he will not like him anymore.
Ivy looked at me like I was nuts and said that is just silly. Everyone knows you get more love by giving away yours. I told her she was right, that the more love you give the more you have, but I don't think this little boy understands that yet. Ivy is now trying to figure out how you get to be the ripe old age of four and not understand this very basic truth. A baby or even a really little toddler she can understand since they are too little to know, but a four year old is a big kid. Big kids know these things so they can teach them to the little kids.

Default Re: She sort of understands love

what a tender heart she has! I'm so sorry she got her feelings hurt, and I'm glad she has you to help navigate through tough times.
