Noelle And Tate

What can I tell you about these two, they are just the best of buds! Noelle takes care of Tate 90% of the time, without being asked. She piggy backs him everywhere, she plays with him, she dresses him, she feeds him, she gets him out of bed in the morning, she has even taken up the challenge of changing his diaper and not just the wet ones. Brave girl! On top of all that she does for him, she has started yet another ritual. Every night before bed she reads to him. As many books as he wants. He would keep her there all night long if I let him. This is the day that you wait for as a parent. This is the reward of having a large family. These are the moments that make it all worth it. When you see your kids, who at times fight like cats and dogs, almost driving you out of your mind, care for each other and lift some of the responsibility off of your shoulders, nothing is more rewarding than that. Aw, finally I get a teeny tiny glimpse of the end reward that we as mothers are so fervently fighting for on the mission of raising our children.
