This picture does my heart good! Its a simple picture of a simple gesture. I was out with the boys shopping one day and when I looked down, this is what I saw:
Ian had grabbed hold of Hayden’s hand and they both just sat there like that for probably 5 minutes. It was really sweet and made my heart melt! Each of the boys have such a sweet and loving nature about them and I know they are only 8 months old so its still early to tell how they are going to act towards each other, but lately they have given me hope that they will be loving towards one another. Not only with this incident, but last week Hayden was a sweet big brother to Ian. Ian had bumped his head on something and started to cry a little and Hayden was sitting behind him and as Ian started to cry, Hayden reached up and started to pat him on the back as to say “there there, its ok” and Ian stopped crying. I’m sure this was merely a coincidence, but I’m going to take it as a sign that my boys really do love each other. The other day Jonathan told me that while I was out earlier that day Hayden started to cry and when Ian saw him crying he picked up Hayden’s pacifier and handed it to him. Haha, but like 2 minutes later proceeded to try and take it out of his mouth…o’well, you take what you can get I guess!
