Brotherly Bond
I took these photos a few days after Lincoln was born.
I was so moved by the bond that Jack, at three and a half, already had with his newborn brother.
His tenderness and interest.
The way his fingers just naturally danced across Lincoln's tiny little head.
It was like they already had secrets and a special language that I didn't speak.
The desire to know, touch, accept.
I remember watching this interaction and marveling at the raw and beautiful and deep-rooted relationship that exists between siblings.
And, rejoicing in the knowledge that over time, this precious, unbreakable bond...
...just gets stronger.
yea that was a tear jerker FOR SURE!

i too love observing the bonds between my kids... unlike anything else i've seen.
So sweet! And like you said - it does grow stronger!
ReplyDeleteSo, so sweet!
ReplyDeleteIt really is so beautiful and amazing to watch the instant bond that exists between siblings.
Beautiful post & great shots- especially the one with Jack's fingers dancing along little Lincoln's head.

Being 8 years younger than my brother and 4 years behind my sister, I never felt that we connected much...even now. And that is why we wanted to have our children closer together in age - I love to see them all interested in the same things and the encouragement that exists between them.
