Watery Eyes

We opened the bin with the Christmas movies today. Leah knew there was a movie that had a horse in it and she was "chomping at the bit" to watch it (ha ha). The movie is Jingle Bells, and I picked it up at a party or craft store before she was born.

After the movie was over, Leah brought it back upstairs and held it up for me to see. "This movie makes your eyes water," she said. I guess the part about the family losing their beloved horse was too much for her horse-loving heart. It made her weepy, but she didn't know how to explain it.

Frankly, I was surprised that she would be so affected by a cartoon. She's turning 6 one month from today. It seems we have a sensitive heart in our bunch!
