Since Tim wasn't home and it seemed so cold this evening, how could I say no when John Caden asked if he could join Anna and I as we read in her bed together? Anna and I were so absorbed in Robin Hood (which strange though it may seem for two girls, has turned out to be one of our most favorite reads of all times) that we didn't even realize that John Caden had fallen asleep right between us!
Once she realized he was asleep, Anna stared at him so sweetly (just like this picture shows) for the longest time! After I carried John Caden to his own bed and came back to Anna's room to complete our gratitude journals together, her first listing for today was, "Being able to snuggle up next to John Caden tonight." Yes, a special treat indeed...a moment not to be counted lightly by a sister who loves her brother dearly and longs for his sweet affection in return.
