He's a really special kid

Whenever Eden cries and Moses is nearby, he tells me why he thinks she's crying. It ranges from wanting to nurse, wanting her blanket, to wanting to snuggle. I think it's really remarkable that this 3 year old has the capacity to think of another person's needs this way. These two are going to be lifelong friends. 

Also, I know he also really wants my attention and snuggles, so it really means a lot that he keeps putting aside his own desires/needs to make sure his baby sister is taken care of well. It's a step above just being a sweet big brother and good helper. I'm proud of this kid. 

I had a slightly disappointing morning today, where he watched a Mickey Mouse clubhouse DVD on repeat while little Eden ate for hours. But, he seemed to be just fine. And even with absolutely no adult supervision for the whole time (e and I were in another room) the living room wasn't even messy at the end of it. He's such a great kid. I feel so honored to get to be his mom.
