Today was Raegan Joy's 4 month appointment. Everything went wonderful. She is healthy and growing perfectly, weighing 13 pounds and measuring 2 feet in length. When it can time for the shots the boys all were anxious for her. I encouraged them to whisper a prayer for Raegan to be brave and then held my sweet baby for the nurse to do her thing. As I hummed Jesus Loves me to her little ear and listened to her little cry I glance over to Cohen. He is sitting in the chair with his little hands covering his ears and eyes squinting closed. I picked up Raegan and began to calm her down (which didn't take long) and Brasen runs over to rub her feet. Nolan is asking over and over if she was ok; but there sat Cohen. I look at his face and his eyes met mine and I see alligator tears falling down his precious cheeks. He was clearly upset at the sight and sound of his baby sister getting shots. He spoke up an said he can't stand for his sister to get hurt. I placed her in his arms and he cuddled her for awhile and then we able to leave the doctors office with his holding her hand and her holding his......Thank you God for my precious children and the bond of love that ties them together.
