Cecilia has paused mid-playing for a desperate nursing session. John Paul comes over saying, "Nurse like a baby? Pull down a ladies shirt?"
He has been asking to nurse lately, but I realized that all he really wants is to snuggle with us while Cecilia nurses. I pull him to me and he snuggles up to my chest, making faces at Cecilia. She gives a sleepy nursing smile and happily grabs at his face.
John Paul gently takes her hand, kissing each finger and snuggling her hand to his face. Satisfied, he goes back to his playing. She too is all done, ready to get back to business with her brother.
It's exchanges like this that seem to be the meaning of life.
Just another Catholic mom blog - crazy, blessed, happy, silly!
That's because they are. You are greatly blessed.
