In His Nature

I was looking for a certain picture today when I found this one

It got me thinking about how love and caring are just in his nature. Now I guess that would be true for most kids, well most people even but sometimes I am blown away by how much he loves. This morning he was very intently looking for a place to put the picture of Little Sister I gave him. He went through the photo album we gave him as a baby and took out a few pictures of Hubby and me and then came back and asked me for a picture of Big Sister. "I need all of our family in there Mommy," he told me. And I agreed. But it is just in his nature. He simply loves his sisters so much and I am awed by it.

Okay, it looks like he is strangling her but in reality he is helping her back up after she fell and was very frustrated that she could not stand up on her own. He heard her wail from the other side of the playground and came running.

Here he was just walking past her on the steps going up to the slide and he simply could not keep himself from hugging her on the way past. How sweet is that?

And this is both of them looking at the picture of their new sister ( photos blanked out for privacy). Maybe it will be in her nature too. Do you think I could possibly have two kiddos that are this sweet? I hope so!!

I know this is not what Beth was thinking when she made this week's You Capture theme Nature. I had a post all about how we walked n the Erie Canal and took pictures of the nature we saw. But when I sat down to write this came out. So, there you have it. And head on over to Beth's and see some more (some real) Nature. :)
