Well, I didn't share mine with the gals today, but I was just downloading some pics, and there it was. That moment.
Isn't that the sweetest? Yes. Big brother asked to put little sister to bed for a nap for the first time (on Monday when he had off school). I tell you the truth: not a moment before this pic, he also had a book in one hand reading to her, and the bottle in the other. Now, look closer... does that little girl even remotely look comfortable? No, I tell ya!
It was all I could do to keep from going back to check and make sure he still had her on his lap!
Here he is with swords in hand. Amazing how those things can be swung with such finesse that my living room escapes destruction from this fine cavalier, and yet that baby must do circus-act contortions to keep from falling off his lap?
(If only that huge, cavernous, thing of a tv would accidentally get hit!)
Here he is again, putting her to bed the other night - 2nd try. A bit better positioning for TA - I don't think she's as near to falling off, but maybe the blanket makes it look better than it is! :-) Do you know - he sings - sings - to her. Silent Night. Over and over.... sweet!
Yup, my Love, I want to homeschool this guy. Having HR home with more time to develop a relationship with sister TA is so worth it.
Awwwww what a sweet picture and I did have to laugh at the position in the first picture. He sounds like a WONDERFUL big brother.♥
ReplyDeleteThis is an absolutely adorable post. Such a sweet moment to have and to remember. My kids are 21 and 19 and they have filled my life with such sweet moments I can't imagine who I would be without their influence. Before they were born I thought it would be me who did all the influencing. Like many parenting moment, what a pleasant surprise.
