Loveable Moments

Always at the Post home... not just Valentine's Day!

Well, almost always! We do have our moments of sibling rivalry. We've been working on independence, aggression, and confidence with Maggie. The other day, Chap ran into her (accidentally - and hit her with a car). He immediately said, "Sorry, Maggie!" And then the tears came! Chap came running to me that Maggie had hit him back in the stomach. While good on one hand (there's that aggression we've been looking for), bad on the other. She did get punished, and yes - Chap did survive.... after all, she's not that aggressive! ;o)

Maggie earned a sucker at school the other day. She put it in her backpack, and kept it there until we got home. At that point, she said - Mommy could the boys have a lollipop, because I don't want to eat mine if they don't have one. Now... there's that love! She does love her brothers! We all went to her Valentine's Party after school the other day, and the pride that she showed when they walked in was priceless! She ran to them and gave them each a hug! She also hugs them each morning we drop them off... and tells them she'll be right down the hall if they need her (this is also a comfort for her).

Whit is not himself again... going through some down days, not much endurance and easily up-settable. Just this morning, he was crying, and Chap went over to him and said... "What's wrong 'Whittie?'" Whit couldn't really tell him what the heart of the matter was, but it was sure a matter of heart on Chap's part. Love really is in the air!

While we do have our moments of sibling rivalry, there are MANY MOMENTS OF LOVE!
