My boy is complex. The testosterone surges.
He orchestrates battles. Everyone must have a weapon, and some, an extra head.
He will take.. you.. out.
But then, he arranges pillows and blankets while Riley is doing her homework. He knows she is stressed, so he prepares for a nice meditation by the Christmas tree. The photo below is actually after the meditation. We’d messed up his perfectly set up blankets by then.
Note the puffy eyes on the girl. She’d been crying. Even still, in two seconds he can have her laughing. She adores him. He adores this up the nose, toothless jack-o-lantern shot of himself. He adores not ever looking when I try to take a picture. I adore digital cameras. Mine makes me a nicer person. He’s lucky I have one and can delete, delete, delete, every photo he messes up by wiggling, or turning his head, or sometimes dropping entirely out of the frame.
“You’re a good boy Seth.”
“You’re a good mom.”
I adore him.
He’s going to make someone a fine partner someday.
That is an utterly delicious picture.
Sounds like an awesome boy!
Everyone needs a “Seth” in their lives 🙂
I bet these two will get together at xmas in the future,as adults, and adore each other. Isn’t that a wonderful thought.
you need to make that your xmas card!
good boy. good girl. you’re blessed doubly.
Siblings are heros in all this. And what would any of us do without them?!
God, I love that boy. (Kind of like…”God, you’re cute.”
Digital cameras are sent by the Universe to deliver Moms and children from squabbles over pictures.
I adore this post, and “feeling” your family love.
🙂
No accident the two came in together. I love their synergy. The picture says it all, doesn’t it?
That is one gorgeous photo!
Love.
