Have you ever heard how pets can be thereputic for children? The eager, accepting wag of a dog’s tail or the soft, content purr of a cat… Being able to just love on something that really expects nothing at all from them…
Ellie is Elijah’s pet. So adorable. He can’t even put her down when he’s doing his school work.
“But I just love her so much! I can’t help it. I have to hold her. Look, I can do my work while holding her. See?”

nice to have a 10 year old…
ah, that surprised face up there is supposed to be smiling…someone is trying to think for me…
I love it! SO cute! Aren’t big brothers the best?? My boys STILL try to do that with Keziah… but she’s too big and wants to color on their papers…
That is the sweetest.
