Sweetness

One recent afternoon, the kids were 'resting' in their rooms after having had a late night out with the Thomas fam the night before. There was a terrible thunderstorm outside. Hannah came to the top of the stairs and yelled downstairs to ask me if she could lay with her brother in his bed because he is scared of the thunder. How could I deny them that?!

It's moments like that that I am so grateful that they have each other. It reminds me of another time not long ago when I saw Hannah get off her bike in the middle of the cul de sac because her brother had fallen on the pavement. She sat next to him, put her arm around him and gently said "It's okay, buddy. I will take care of you. I love you so much, little brother."


I am so proud of the little girl she has become.
