Brotherly Love

I'm always worried about my boys not getting along. They fight constantly and can't share or agree on anything. It is disheartening to me to see them at each other all the time. Tonight, I sent them upstairs to get their pj's on and I went about my routine, picking up things and Pat was doing some stuff on the computer. The boys were gone for quite some time and it was TOO quiet upstairs (this never happens, there is always screaming when they are alone together). I slipped up there to see what was going on and I peek in their room to find this:

  • Lukas: Ok, now just put your leg through there. And stand up, can you stand up? There. Good job. We did it!
  • Max: Okay Lukas. Yay, we did it!
  • Lukas: Now we have to get your arm through here. Are you tired? I know, that's why we have to get your jammies on. Is it taking too long?
Then I ran to get Pat so he could see and Lukas closed the door so we couldn't see anymore. It was SO cute to see Lukas helping Max get in his pj's. It made all the naughty things he'd done today seem obsolete. I guess there is hope after all. And look how cute they are in front of the Christmas tree today. It made my heart melt!

It does make all the arguing seem not so bad, doesn't it? That is so sweet.

that is so darn cute...They will become closer and closer, sometimes I just sit back and watch my Carter and Kylee and they are so cute together now. They are best buds

Oh, that is adorable!! :) I've found throughout these 4 years with our kids that the good always out-weighs the bad. Times like these are so precious. There's nothing quite like an older sibling helping out a younger one. I see this every day with our kids! :)
