Brotherly Love



One of my concerns before having Noah David was how well Daniel Isaac would "adjust" to his attention being divided and how well he would welcome his baby brother.  This seems almost laughable now that Noah David is here and Daniel Isaac is the epitome of a loving brother to him.  Daniel Isaac is REGULARLY insisting that Noah David wants him and wants him to hold him...he is constantly supplying Noah David with sweet kisses and last night, my heart melted when he said, "Noah David, you're my best friend."  

We really prayed for both boys when I was pregnant and that the Lord would give them a good relationship, that Daniel Isaac would not experience jealousy in his heart over Noah David but would join in to welcome him and love and care for him.  I must say, that as usual, our Father answered this prayer above and beyond what I asked or imagined.  And now Daniel Isaac is saying that he is going to teach Noah David how to be a big brother for "all the 'nother children" we're going to have.  Thank you, Jesus, for the love you've placed in Daniel Isaac's tender heart for his baby brother!
