Nurturing

"I never fail to be struck by the way that women, young women, and even little girls seem to have an instinctive interest and ability in nurturing. It is not only a mother’s primary responsibility but also part of our “individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose” Susan W. Tanner

Marlee was so sweet with her baby doll today. She would lay a wipe over her doll like it was a blanket. And everytime the wipe folded or didn't lay perfectly flat she would staighten it out & lay it flat again & "tuck" her baby in. So I got out a diaper & put it on her baby & she laughed. She was so happy & she "changed" her baby doll's diaper & patted her doll. She was acting just like a little mommy & it made me realize that even at a young age, women know how to nurture. It also made me realize that she is already following my example, so I better do my best. My boys never did things like this, it is funny how different a little girl is.
