I’m a mom learning to balance my family, faith, and writing career.

Tidbits with Timmy: Brotherly Love

Memories: Jan 28, 2004 Brotherly Love

Today instead of going to the gym like I do every M/W/F, Timmy and I snuggled in bed. It was too cold to drag the kids outside (that was my excuse on Monday) and I was a bit lazy and too comfortable in bed.

While watching Sesame Street we had this conversation:

Timmy: I want to be like Chris
Mom: Why?
Timmy: Because he’s big!
Mom: Is there any other reason?
Timmy: Because he’s nice.

These are the moments you long for as a parent. Brothers actually getting along and loving each other. Then the conversation continued.
Mom: Do you want to be like Joey?
Timmy: No!
Mom: Why not?
Timmy: Because he’s gross!! (He was definitely influenced by big bro Chris!)
I guess there’s still some more work to be done in the area of brotherly love.

    Gina, cherish and keep journaling those moments. My oldest just turned 21 and life with him and around him has already changed him. And our relationship for the time being.
    I need to let go and let God.
