Sympathetic Soul

For over two years, since Madi was born, I have been trying to capture and document this darling display of puppy love.  Lily must be a very sympathetic soul . . . or have excruciatingly good hearing (probably the latter . . .acute, powerful little Chihuahua ears that are over-sensitive to high-pitched, pained baby screams).  It has been IMPOSSIBLE.  One does not reach for one's camera when your precious princess is hurt and hooting.  It just doesn't seem to be the natural reaction.  But it is soooooooo hilarious and heartwarming to watch Lily throw back her head and join in the bawling and blubbering with her own howls and yowls.  She only cries with Madi or Hannah if they are howling a true-blue hurt cry.  She very accurately detects the difference between a pain cry or a tantrum/angry/want-some-attention cry.  When her soul sistas are in pain, she is in pain.  When they hurt, she hurts!  I only caught a teeny snippet of Lily's howl when Hannah was screaming in pain in the following video but it will give help me remember this heartwarming happening for years to come. :)
