I think that my lil man has the best big sister in the world!! She is such a darling to him (when she's not putting him in a choke hold or pressing his face with a pillow) She treats him so tenderly MOST of the time (the aforementioned behaviour usually only occurs right before nap and bedtime, when reasoning and rationale return after a rest).
But for instance, at bedtime, if she looks into his crib and his blanket has somehow become displaced, she CANNOT go to bed unless she tucks him in nice and snug. Honestly it is her routine. She checks the crib, fixes him up and then curls up snugly under her covers. Some nights she even gives him a kiss!
Last week, he sustained an injury (more on that another time...maybe...) at any rate Mimi poured over him like he was dying. Her face was so full of pity and concern. She covered her mouth and gasped...repeating "Ooh, you aright? Ooh..." brows creased and everything...then she looked at me..."Mommy, put ice in it? Oooh" gently stroking his face. I almost started crying!
Honestly, my prayer is that this lasts. They enjoy each others company so much, they literally go looking for each other during the day (whenever one is out of sight)...she makes him laugh and he makes her smile...I'm brimming with tears even as I type...
*sigh*
