Empathy from a Child

I have been having some muscle pain in my leg for a few weeks and have been limping at school. Today as we were leaving to go home, one of my students asked if she could hold my hand. When I asked her “Why?” She said, “I just want to.” She held my hand really tight as we walked. She hugged me and said, “I love you” when we got to her spot. I teach Kindergarten!❤❤ I love my job!❤
