the nurturing one. . .


The boys are home from school today. . .Martin Luther King day. . .which means a little extra sleep [for the weary ones who work through the night these days]. . .

About 8:30 this morning, I heard a stirring. . . And watched as sweet little Luke wandered the hallway. . .on tiptoe. . .with frankie trailing under his feet. . . He walked into Jack's room, picking up Jack's blankie from the floor, and carefully laid beside his sleeping brother. . . so sweet. . . Before venturing into the bathroom . . . then back out to find Ethan. . . And when he didn't find him in the nursery, he came tiptoeing into our room . . .

He crawled up onto our big bed to give baby Eat-thin a gentle kiss on his sleeping cheek. I turned Dora on our tv so we could just cuddle, waking slowly. . . Before Ethan woke around 9, and we started our day together.
