Comforting an Adult

A toddler comforted an adult who cut her finger preparing classroom snacks.

The child is not yet verbal enough to be heard loud and clear with his words but he pushed a chair from the play dough table over to the counter where the adult was, and pointed at the chair for her to sit down. He kept tapping the chair until she sat, then he put his hand on her shoulder and patted it.
