As we have gone on in our parenting experiment I am seeing more and more how these little kids are so kind that it breaks my heart, in a good way but it is still a little painful. Last night Sam had a strange coughing fit that lasted a couple of minutes, he just couldn't stop. He wasn't hurt or anything he just couldn't stop coughing. We wanted to help him feel better. Joel was feeling kinder than I was at 3:30 am and he went in to hold Sam and decided to sleep on the floor (I really wasn't sure what that was accomplishing but it was a nice idea) So, he went to go and sleep in Sam's room for a little while. Sam loved it and was very excited to host a visitor.
Today he was really excited about it and decided to make his dad a bed. He took the quilt from his bed and laid it on the floor, got a pillow from our bed for the top of the "bed" and he put some books beside it (Monkey Puzzle, My Very Own Name Book, The Gruffalo) and he gave him his Mimi sheep (not the biggest player of the Mimi blankets, but an important one). He showed it to me. Apparently, my bed is still in the other room but if I really wanted to sleep in his room he would make a space for me.
Like I said - so sweet that it breaks and melts your heart.

how adorable! A couple of weeks ago I was really sick, and when I told Luke I couldn't play just then because I had to lay down, he took off and came back with his doctor kit, and proceeded to "fix me up" with all his instruments, and then tell me I was going to be ok now.
