Big Sister : Nap Enforcer

Yesterday, all 4 of us were hanging out at home and Blake was awake and quite fussy and crying. Madison comes up to us on the couch and says, "Um... I think he needs his big sister." I replied, "Okay, come sit down." She does and I put Blake in her arms. He almost instantly calms down and then proceeds to fall fast asleep! I guess she was right.

She held her sleeping brother until he was in a deep sleep and then declared her work done. We transferred him out of her arms and he took a great nap. This could really come in handy!

Sad Dream

10.17.2011

*Maddie sits down next to me (Mom) at the park and looks up at me.*
her: Mommy, I missed you.
I: Missed me? I haven't left. When did you miss me?
her: I dreamt you leaved me. :(
I: Last night? Is that why you wanted so many snuggles this morning?
her: Yeah, I was sad.
