A sister's love is forever

I don't think that I have ever seen a two year so into their baby sister as what Ryleigh is. The girl is totally in love with Madison. She just can't enough of her. She loves playing with her and holding her. She is more excited to sissy in the mornings or when I pick her up than she is us. She talks and sings to her. She loves playing Pat-A-Cake with her. And of course, she likes to help do everything for her from changing her diaper to getting her binkie. Ryleigh is such a big help too. Having two small children can make it near impossible to get anything done at home(as you all know), especially when Madison has to have attention all the time. If Madison is crying and I need just a few minutes to get something done, Ryleigh is more than willing to entertain her for me. And Madison thinks that Ryleigh is the coolest thing in the world. She loves to watch her and is always smiling at her. Lately, Ryleigh has been able to get Madison to laugh at her. We had several moments over the holiday weekend that were just so heart-warming to watch. Monday evening Tom and I were get dinner ready and Madison was in her highchair in the kitchen. Ryleigh started playing with her and the two of them got to laughing so much. It was so funny. Tom and I agreed that it was so awesome to watch the two of them interact like that. It's such a great feeling to see the love that they have for each other. That's real love, when it comes from two babies!
