There was more to the last post.

I accidentally published before getting the words from my head to the computer. And I can't get the story out of my mind. It is too cute not to share.

Saturday night we went to a family Christmas party. It was fun. Kids were running everywhere. Of course, mine made up the majority of them, but there were others. As I watched down the hall, a little girl pushed MaKenna away from a toy. The same little girl whom was pushing kids the entire evening. I didn't think too much of it. MaKenna was fine. Still smiling and still playing with the toy.

Mason thought the opposite. Moments after the little push, he approached the girl. In the sternest voice he could find he said, "DON'T YOU PUSH MY SISTER!"

I love watching my kids when they don't know I am. Sometimes they fight. Sometimes they play oh so well. Other times they ignore each other. There are times when they sit together to watch movies (the picture below). No matter what they are doing or not doing I always can feel their unconditional love for each other. And can already see in the future the protection the girls will have from a certain little someone.
