little mama

This morning I was allowed a few moments of extra rest. When I woke up and went looking for the kids, one was missing. I wouldn't normally dare go in the baby's room in fear of waking him up but I thought I heard laughing. I found the missing one entertaining the baby. She was so proud of having taken care of him. It was one of those moments when you are not sure if you should correct her or praise her for her actions. I was impressed with her ability to climb into the crib. But even more so with her mama instinct to care for her younger brother. Now I just need to teacher her how to make breakfast and I can sleep in even longer.
