Today Little Man woke up and found me sleeping on the couch with the baby. After cuddling with me for a while, his sister's face drew his attention. He started caressing her hair and cheeks, touching her nose and eyes, she was sleeping deeply and did not mind but then things got a little more "aggressive"...
Little Man started to shout "lap baby" and wanted desperately to hold her in his lap - so Little Miss had to say bye bye to sleep while crying loud because our little hooligan would not stop until he got what he wanted! 🤣
One is laughing one is crying and I am melting...
Having a sister six years younger, I grew up wanting to get rid of her 😂 and we did not get along until I went to high school. Seeing my kids in those sweet moments together feels so precious. It might be hard having them with so little time apart (25 months), things might get crazy during the day, both kids crying at the same time wanting different things, the house is a mess on a daily basis, there are days when the laundry is piling, sleeping longer than four hours in a row seems like a dream hard to catch, "mom brain" is a constant state of mind BUT...
there are moments like these that make it all worth it! People were right when they told me this might be the most tiring period of my life, but it is also the happiest, sweetest and most memorable of all!
