Focus on Sibling Love not Rivalry


The last few days of this week were fairly brutal when it came to brother-sister relationships in this house. Kade and Keira were fighting about anything possible - who was taking up more space on the couch, who was going to shower first, who would be in front while we were bike riding. I'm sure most of it is normal stuff but I can't stand it! I want these 2 to grow up tight....knowing they can always count on one another. I start to fret....but then I find these pictures.....

Pictures of the 2 of them content in being a brother and a sister....pictures that remind me they really do love each other.....then a few things happen....

Kade gets stung by a bee at baseball practice and Keira is soooo worried about him....he leans down and assures her that he will be fine......Keira can't find the stuffed animal she wants to sleep with so Kade helps her search it out......

These are the moments that I need to remember and focus on more! The moments of Sibling Love.

I am right with you. I just can't deal with the arguing about silly stuff. I'm glad you are bringing the love to the top of the list. It is so hard to remeber to focus on the positives, isn't it? Love the page!

Growing up with an older brother always picking on me never stopped me from loving him to pieces. He's always been my hero. I'm glad you have found some good and what a beautiful lo. Your kids are so adorable!
