Sibling Love

Our life is chaotic.  It's loud and messy and crazy and busy.  Someone always needs something.  Always.  Restaurant outings are a circus.  I have to gear myself up for grocery trips.  Laundry is an every night occurrence.  I generally sink onto the couch exhausted at the end of the day.  Life right now makes me tired, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.  And it's moments like these that make it all worth it...

It's little moments like when Staley went to the "Caught Being Good Store" at school and used her caring coupons to buy herself a prize, but also one for Adelie and Briggs.  How Adelie will go into Briggs' room when he wakes up and play with him in his crib until we can come in to get him up.  How Briggs and Adelie both give Staley big hugs when we drop her off at school.  It's those moments when the kids are playing so nicely together or snuggling together on the couch or making things for each other that just fill my heart to the brim.  Yes, there is chaos.  Yes, there is tattling and whining and fighting.  But there is also love.  So much love.
