Big Sister

Grandma & Grandpa brought Ivory as early as they could Thursday morning.  Ivory came in with a huge smile and her excited whisper mode.  She came up on the bed with me and explored her new little brother.  "Head, head, head."  "Hat!"  "Hat off."

"hair"

"Hands, fingers"

"Feet, toes"

Her curious tilted head look

"All done, all done!"

Ivory is a very sweet big sister.  Sometimes a little jealous for Mom's attention, but really handling everything quite well.  She sweetly pats Micah on the tummy when he cries saying, "Don't cry baby.  Ok.  Ok.  It's ok."  The other day I was laying Ivory down for her nap and sat next to her as she lay in her toddler bed.  Micah started crying in his swing so I pulled him out and laid him next to her in bed.  She snuggled and comforted him and he quited down.  In the car the other day he qould stop crying when she held his hand.  Tonight at bedtime she was so sweet to him I couldn't hold back the tears.  Precious, precious moments.
