Tonight LooneyTunes (8yob), told my Beloved that he would put the 'babies' to bed.
(The last couple nights he has sat in their room next to LittlestBubby's (1 1/2yob) bed, to keep him from climbing out - which he learned how to do just this last week (...grrr). PrettyPinkPrincess always has a hard time at bed time settling in and staying in her bed as well, but when LooneyTunes stays in there she's just fine, of course.)
Anyway...
He sat in there and told them a story about 'when he was little' and then prayed for them.
Precious.
...then told them a few more stories... scary ones, as he told me a little later. ...well he's still learning, besides, he has a few years before he has to be the one to get up with nightmares ;)
Awww...that is so totally sweet! Story and prayers...that is something that Princess and Littlest will remember when they're older. *sigh* Sounds like you've got some great kiddos (and room for more, of course!).
My almost 7yo loves to help out. He was the one that was talking to Tank last night...trying to comfort him about his odd fears of junior camp...a camp that he initially cried about because he couldn't go to (too young) and then because *I* wouldn't be camping with him. And it's at least 3 years before he's allowed to go. Sweet but silly, huh?
Have a great night and get some rest! You need it, in "your condition" hehehee... ;-)
That is so cute. I love it when my oldest offers to tuck in or put one down for a nap. It's neat to see their affection for each other. I think homeschooling really fosters that. Christa

Good job, Looney Tunes!! You are growing up very fast! Mom will need your help more and more. Being a good example to the younger kids is a HUGE help! Follow THE Leader!!
Way to go LooneyTunes. Being first born has a few negitives but overall I think its the best position to be in. I love to see the sensitive side to my grands. WOW so cool. Can't wait to see you all soon !
