I love watching them play together. I am sometimes fearful of the damage that they might inflict on her... but mostly they are gentle and careful with her. I cannot wait to see how the sibling love unfolds as they get older. I anticipate the fights and the squabbles and the silly fights. I anticipate the dinner time giggles and the laughter and the singing. I don't think for a minute I knew the love would be like this. I didn't count on the desire for inclusion or the urgent need to make sure they are all accounted for at all times. I never expected that they would want to be aware of each other at all waking hours and making sure that everyone is in the middle of their room...
I had no idea they would love each other this much at their ages. Who knew?
