Sisterly Love


Madi spoon feeds Hannah her breakfast Cheerios.

Hannah ended up with a soggy lap  full tummy and HAPPY HEART!
                                                
Madi reads Hannah the deep doctrines of General Conference in the Ensign.

"Break it down for me, Big Sis!  This is heavy stuff.  I'm a bit confused...line upon line!"


These pics are to remind Mama that Madi IS capable of kindness.  She CAN be so nurturing, soft and sweet to her little sister.  

Hannah is pure goodness--a peachy, pleasant, mild and sweet little nugget of joy.  She has the sunniest disposition and a gleeful grin that makes my heart sing.  She ADORES her big sis, tagging along wherever Madi roams.  She crawls as quickly as she can to be right by Madi's side and never lets her out of her sight.  You'd think after being mis-treated and injured time and time again lately, she'd give her dangerous sis a wide berth, but little Hannah is just too forgiving  and can't get enough of her fun and ferocious bestie.  Currently Hannah is covered in war-wounds from being scratched, pinched, clawed, pushed, punched, bit, whacked, stabbed, etc. etc.  It makes me soooo sad and MAD when Madi hurts Hannah.  BUT ANYWAY...

Positive Moments I Want To Remember:  
A few days ago we needed to get somewhere quick but only had the single stroller with us in the back of the van.  I asked Madi if she could scootch up and share with Hannah.  Madi looked at me with her angelic face and chirped, "Sure, Mom.  Madi and Hannah BEST FRIENDS!"  I plopped Hannah in back of Madderdoon and we strolled merrily and squishily along.  



Today at Wal-Mart Madi had Hannah hysterically giggling in the cart.  She was tickling her toes, playing peek-a-boo and being so fun and cute.  
On good rides in the bike trailer, Madi will feed Hannah snacks and retrieve her Sippy when she drops it, pressing the cup up to her little sister's lips to make sure Hannah stays hydrated.
Madi and Hannah love to giggle together and light up when they are reunited after one or the other wakes up from a nap or comes in to say "GOOD MORNING!"
They both LOVE the Lorax and will laugh out loud as they watch it together...kids' laughter is contagious and pretty soon we are all giggling and having fun!
                                                
I really hope these sweet sisters will be best friends forever and will be a source of strength and comfort to each other.  There's nothing quite like that special relationship between sisters.  I sure love each one of mine and hope my cuties will treasure each other, too!
