Life in the family lane

Big brotherlyness starts early

August 6, 2007 by LostRambler

The wife and daughter came home from the hospital today. The son was as pleased as punch. He ran around the house being joyfully chaotic. I knew very well how much he missed his mummy, but it was extremely touching to see that he missed his little sister too. When the wife put the daughter down into the pram we keep in the kitchen, the son thoughtfully went into the living room, collected his favorite teddy and carefully placed it on top of her. He then climbed on a chair and tried to rock her to sleep.

It’s moments like that that make being a parent worth it.
