Finally. There are starting to be more and more peaceful moments between Analise and Josiah, and it sure warms my heart. <\/p>\n
In the car on the way home from preschool last month, I’d given Analise a package of snack crackers to munch on until we got home. Josiah started campainging for a cracker… "Cwacker, cwacker, peas…" I nudged Analise to be a a nice sister, "Could you please give Josiah a cracker Analise?" "No." "Please, Analise? It would be so nice of you to share with him." Then I heard, "Ank ew!" "Analise, did you share with him?" "Yes." And everyone was still happy. And my heart about burst.<\/p>\n
Just yesterday, Josiah was playing basketball with a little hoop hanging in his room. It was counting the baskets for him, and Analise positioned herself right next to the game and played cheerleader. It was so cute. She’d cheer for him, and he’d stop after every basket and cheer, too. I hope she’ll always be his biggest cheerleader. <\/p>\n
There are still plenty of moments of not sharing, chasing, knocking each other around, but it’s so sweet to see the love between them growing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
