Who is the luckiest?



Yesterday, I was actually away from my children for 4.5 hours - the longest I have ever left Leo. It was extremely liberating to go shopping by myself, a definite luxury for me. When I came home, Danny was in the driveway, holding Leo, and Amelia was on the next door neighbor's lawn with the rest of the kids from the street. It was one of the cutest sights I had ever seen. I miss them when I am not around them, even though it is nice to get away once in a while. I love to laugh with them, more than with anyone else. Leo has one of the cutest giggles I have ever heard and Amelia is one of the silliest girls I know. Her sweetness and sense of humor are rubbing off on her little brother, who she just can't get enough of. As we read stories just before, Leo was grabbing at her face in a way that was very much intentional and so very sweet. We made a decision when Leo was a couple of days old that I was going to let Amelia be as close to Leo as she wanted, as long as noone was getting hurt. This was one of the best decisions we made, as they both want to be together as much as they can.
