Just

I spend a lot of time making sure Baby Nate is not in harm’s way.  Harm being another name for his enthusiastic and sometimes spastic, loving and roaring older sibling.

“Jakey, are you being careful?”
“I just rubbing him.  I just rubbing Baby Nake.”

“Gentle.  Gentle.  Jacob, no jumping around him.”
“I just patting him.”

“Jake, please give him some space.  You can’t lay on top of him.”
“I just hugging him, Mama.”

“JJ, he’s scared.  No roaring in his face.”
“I’m just kissing him.”

Today I asked, “Jakey, is Baby Nate OK?”
“I just love him, Mama.”

I just love you both.
