A Mommy Memory

Tonight as I fed Christian some dinner Jack was dancing around the kitchen and proceeded to smack his head on the counter.  He sliced himself open just at the edge of his left eyebrow.  He of course screamed and cried.  I applied a lot of pressure and thankfully it didn't bleed much.  We put a band aid and neosporin on it and he was good as new. 

Fast forward an hour.

As Jack and Ellie played in the family room Jack accidentally whacked Ellie in the face with his sword.  It was nothing too serious but she did cry and curled up on the couch.  In true Jack form, before I could do anything, he had gotten her a tissue and was gently wiping away her tears saying, "It's all right Ellie.  It's all right."  He then covered her up with a blanket and curled up at the other end himself.

These are the moments I absolutely treasure as a mother.  To watch my children love each other and to be kind to one another.  He is such a tender little boy and I am so blessed to be his mommy.
