#100 Welcome to the Sibling Club

I realized today would be my 100th blog post so of course wanted something extra special to post about (yes still postponing my crochet project catch ups and daily update will come later).

Luckily the kids provided me something amazingly wonderful to write on today. I laid E on her mat and seconds later I see this (pic below)! C and J brought over one of the awesome presents from Aunt Jill that we got while in NC and were playing with E. This wasn't posed and I had to sneak up to take a pic. My heart melted seeing this show of acceptance and C and J welcoming E into their club, into their play world. C having her arms over her two siblings just made it even more perfect.

The kids have played with E before but often she ends up more like one of the toys that excite the kids then an equal. Also the 2/3 year age difference is so much different than the 1 year where C and J became equals so quickly and often seem like twins now versus they seem so big compared to their baby sis in terms of size and age. It's a whole new ball game but this was a huge step and I know as E gets bigger, more talkative, and more mobile they will all have even more fun together.

I am so very blessed!
