My very generous Aidan

I have always been aware of what a nice and caring boy Aidan is. He is always very affectionate toward others, especially little ones. He loves to snuggle and gives great hugs and kisses. He is full of "I love yous" and is constantly telling it everyone around him. I was reminded what a good little boy he was today.
Aidan had his Christmas party for his Kindergarten class today. I was one of the room helpers who signed up. Let me create a mental picture for you. 20 Kindergartners trying to make individual gingerbread houses. Each child got graham crackers, frosting, candies, M&Ms, candy canes, etc. It was a messy and fun project for all. After that project, they kids each got 2 cookies and then some take home goodie bags. I was helping one of the other moms clean up after the party was over. We were packing up the extra treats in Ziploc bags so the kids could take home what they didn't eat. I overheard one of the other moms asking Aidan if he would like to take his leftovers home with him. He said "Yes, I would like to share this with my brother". Even the mom was a little shocked! Normally, kids don't share sweets like that with anyone! I can honestly say that I don't think Carson would have been so generous with Aidan.
So I was very happy with Aidan as we were leaving but not sure if he would go through with it. We picked up Carson from preschool and sure enough, the first thing Aidan said to him once we got back into the car....."Carson, I have a cookie for you". He also shared his M&M's with Carson too.
I am continued to be shocked by Aidan's generosity and hope it continues throughout his life. I think a lot of people can benefit from someone like him.
