“kerfluffle”–I am well impressed.

Those are such sweet moments between brothers–I love spontaneous affection of any kind expressed by my guys…for each other!

Often it is tempting to step in and be a rescuer, but I think kids learn much more by negotiating for themselves where possible. I loved the way you stood back to let them sort out.

I even have some of them documented on film for proof later on! ;) Once I finish crying over here over the sheer beauty of those moments, I will tell you that I too treasure these with my own kiddos.

Your boys will remember and cherish those memories as well, even if those memories migrate to the fog of inarticulate memories, the emotions toward each other will stay in tact. You do well at parenting if this is a regular enough occurrence. Congrats! Having a close brother below me, and another brother 5 years my senior (your hubby) I know what that can be like.

And so universal, or at least here in this house. Maybe it's because our children are similarly spanned in age or similar in temperament, but each of those three occurrences -- both the kerfluffles and the love -- happen a lot around here (I'll plead the fifth on which happens more often). Beautiful.
