A year ago today, Cameron was about 24-weeks in-utero and was up and at ’em, tumbling and kicking away in the wee hours of the morning (5am-ish!). Dylan was super-enthused about the prospect of having a little sister, and we hoped his enthusiasm wouldn’t wane. As it turns out, we got lucky! These kids adore each other.
Tonight, on our way upstairs, Cameron attempted climbing (the step is still a little too high for her to get her knee up) and Dylan sat next to her and declared, “I’m giving her all my love” and leaned in to give her kisses. Quite by coincidence, Cameron was up at 5:30 this morning, and her first inclination was to start patting Dylan’s head and yammering away in his direction. She still is often beside herself with joy when she sees him — her legs kick like crazy and she starts squealing like mad. How long is this unbridled enthusiasm for each other gonna last??
Hopefully forever! What a wonderful gift, siblings who absolutely adore each other. Seems to run in your family!
