The Peace Offering

This morning while I was laying in bed, Nathan and Carson woke up and came and got in bed with me. I told Carson that I had a doctors appointment today and that he and Nate would be going to Grandma's for a while. He was so excited. He thought that meant that our baby was coming. I explained that he would not be here until after Christmas. He rubbed my tummy and started whispering to the baby. The only thing I could hear was, "I love you, little baby. I really love you." So cute. Nathan was watching all of this transpire, and he started patting my tummy saying, " Baby. Baby. Baby." Then he stopped and I could tell that he was thinking. He picked up his prize posession...his blankey and placed it gently on my tummy. No one gets to use the blankey, so I am assuming that this is a peace offering to his new baby brother. Hopefully it means that Nate will be kinder to him than Carson is to Nate.
