Meadows Family: Sister/Brother Post

Berk and Jack's relationship has been one that I have so enjoyed watching bloom over the last year. From her "hatred" towards Thad and I when we brought Jack home (and I'm pretty sure it was as close to hatred as an 18-month old gets) to her sweetest "Hey there handsome man," today, it makes me feel so blessed. She is the best big sister and makes me so proud to be her mom and so happy that we chose to give her a sibling when we did (sometimes we still question WHY we didn't wait longer, but all in all, it is great)! Being a big sister is going to be something that Berk and I will always have in common and I know I will probably learn more from her about being a big sister than I ever learned on my own! Jack absolutely adores Berk and I can't help but tear up everytime he looks up at her with those incredible blue eyes. I know these two are going to be trouble with a capital T in the near future, but I also know that they will be the best of friends. It makes me want another baby so bad to be able to give the gift of "big brotherhood" to Jack because I know he will/would be an amazing big brother. But right now, I am just smitten with these two and love their ever-evolving relationship. In a nutshell, our crazy, hectic life is pretty perfect with all of its daily quarrels and loving embraces. Thank you Lord for blessing me with such a wonderful family and allowing me to see your grace through everything.
