Ok I hate to brag but I am so proud of ds today. We went to the egg hunt at the park, since he still has 10 days until his birthday, he was hunting eggs with the 5 and under kids. I did have a talk with him about the little kids, if he sees an egg and a little one was near, let the little one get it. I didn't have to worry, they had over a 100 eggs.
When he got his bucket full, he dumped it in my bag, then got another bucket full. We were walking back (all eggs had been found) and two groups were still looking for eggs with little ones. They had gotten there late, ds noticed and started taking the eggs out of his basket and dropping them all over the ground. He yelled over "here's some eggs" and all the little ones got them.
I almost cried. He gave up his eggs for those kids. He still had the ones in my bag though. One of the park rangers saw this and walked over. Told James, "come on, I know the Easter bunny wants to see you", she walked James around all the kids in line to see the bunny and told the bunny what he did. All the parents in the group clapped and the bunny gave James a chocolate bunny for being so nice and sharing. Can y'all tell my heart is bursting??/
