2nd Best

I love any opportunity to spend one-on-one time with the boys. Since they were little, we've always played the "do you love me more than...." game. Although Ben has always has a tough time deciding between me or chocolate chip cookies, in the end I always come out on top. Until this week that is. Both boys (mind you they were not together & would not have known what the other had said to me) told me this week that they love Meg more than they love me. I have always wanted to be the "girl" in their lives. However, my heart couldn't be fuller than to know that Meg is their new #1 girl.

I love that they love her and want her with them at all times. I love that they hate to leave her when they go to school. I love that they can't go to sleep at night until they've given her a million kisses. I love that they can't stand her see her cry. I love that they mention daily how they can't wait to take her to the beach. I love that they willingly wash their hands a dozen times a day because they don't want her to be sick. I love that they read to her. I love that they love her more than they love anyone else!

2nd best is right where I want to be!

What good big brothers she has...they are going to be soooo...protective when she hits the dating years. Between them and her daddy, some boy she brings home is going to have it rough! :)

How sweet!!! You have two very protective little boys, and I agree with Anna. Poor little Meg want have a chance when it comes time for her to date. I just hope my boys are as protective over their little sister, and your two are over Meg.
