We haven't been feeling too well around here. Stomach bugs and colds have required extra snuggles and loving, especially for A. But I was working hard to get the laundry done and couldn't snuggle at the moment. Thank goodness I have a great helper that loves being Little Mommy to her little brother and sisters. C has such a sweet spirit; she genuinely cares for her little siblings. I asked if she would please sit and hold A while I finished folding the clothes. She sat, while M and J brought books and stuffed animals to help entertain A. He ended up falling asleep, and I let them snuggle together until he woke up. Of course C loved it, and it was such a precious moment that it warmed my soul (and let me finish the laundry)!
