Both of our boys love it when their sister wants to play with them. But Josiah especially loves it when his sister notices him. If she sits in his lap, his heart melts and he is won over. But she rarely chooses to hang out with Josiah because he always has his hands on her and she is a "look but not touch" kind of girl.
This morning Josiah came into my room so happy with a great story to tell me. He was grinning from ear to ear and said that Olivia let him pick her up "and she didn't even cry!" Well, Josiah didn't get enough, so he followed her around asking if she wanted him to carry her or if she wanted to play with him. She finally walked off and allowed him (yes, she is very much a princess) the privilege of interaction. As Josiah followed her out of the room, I could hear him say, "I love you, Olivia." And then a second later, I heard, "Do you love me?" I think she loves him more than he knows.

Thats cute! My boys call each other buddy and hug when they are in new places. Funny how kids are.
Oooohhh....I love it! I bet she nodded (with her thumb in her mouth) when Josiah asked her if she loved him.
I'm glad you figured out how to import your blog onto Facebook. I love your pictures! And I love those kids!
He will be her protector for life which is so cool!!! I always wished I had an older brother to "take care of me" but instead I was the oldest and "little mom". I thought I was helping, my brothers didn't see it that way! Ha!
Charlotte- I can tell that your boys have such a sweet bond.
Mom- Well...she actually just ignored him. haha Poor Josiah. But I don't really think she knew what the question meant, otherwise she would have nodded with her thumb in her mouth. In fact, she may have ignored him with her thumb in her mouth. :)
Lindsey- I didn't. I tried to just copy it but that didn't work. so I rewrote it all. I'll never do it again.
Dawn- That's why I like you so much! I was also a little mom. But oh, I hated being called that! haha
