"Mummy, don't cry," Leah sniffled and reached out her little hand to wipe Wendy's tears.
She hadn't been crying, but when she saw Wendy cry, she couldn't help but say, "When you cry, Mummy, I can't help but cry too."
"Okay, if Mummy doesn't cry, Leah won't cry either," Wendy said with a gentle, guilt-ridden tone of voice and wiped her tears again.
"Mummy." Leah pointed to the merry-go-round in the distance and said, "I want to play the merry-go-round again. Mummy should play with me."
Leah suddenly wanted to play the merry-go-round again. Wendy knew very well what this move meant.
Even though she was sad herself, she was still doing her best to be mindful of Wendy's emotions.
Reaching out to pick up Leah, Wendy kissed her little cheeks and nodded as she said, "Okay, Mummy will play with Leah."
Wendy and Leah went to play on the merry-go-round while Timothy and Todd took Jake to play something else.
