John's sensitivity

Our John can sometimes be a fairly sensitive kid in terms of sympathizing with people and/or things. Take this weekend for example. John has a stuffed shark. He loves his shark and calls it a hammerhead. We've tried to correct him (I think it is suppose to be a great white), but he's three. Anyway, we think he was feeling sorry for the shark this weekend when he wanted it to swim in some water....in the toilet.
