lunch time giggles

They just adore each other.

Lunch time is always 'fun time'. They sit at the table and somehow manage to consume ridiculous amounts of food while they laugh, sing, joke, giggle, and chat - making up silly songs, sounds and words, and generally just communicating in some kind of secret sibling code only they can understand.

I stand in the kitchen preparing the next item for their conveyor belt of lunch, and just smile at their antics. 

Their bond warms my heart to a degree I never even knew existed!

I love them both fiercely, and yet I somehow love to see them loving each other even more...



Lily sings a silly song, Eli goes into hysterics

  3. Sometimes I wonder if we are right to try and add another to our family, but these photos help calm my heart that, yes, a sibling is a great idea :)

  4. I love these photos Kate, how delightful that they interact so well together and find such great joy in each others company. I am sure there is probably some rivalry but you are a true testament to wonderful parenting and the joy on your children's faces are from the love that you show them in their lives.
