Kindness and an Older Cousin's Attention

"True beauty is a warm heart, a kind soul, and an attentive ear."
~ Ken Poirot

We ran into my nephew who was home from college at our neighborhood pizzeria.  After warmly greeting me, he said hello to my daughters and then asked me where my son was.  I told him that my son was sitting at the table on the other side of the restaurant, so my nephew walked over to say hello.  After he had eaten with his friends and was leaving, my nephew came over to our table to say goodbye and made sure to talk to my son again.  He asked him several questions about school.  I have always thought of my nephew as being incredibly well-mannered, but on this occasion, I also appreciated his attentiveness to his much younger cousin.
