It Must Be Love, Right?

Just the other day, I was going through my 13 year olds text messages on her phone like I do periodically.  We have an open door policy when it comes to cell phones, ipads, internet, their rooms, backpacks etc. :)

My girls argue a lot of the time.  And it's always about trivial things - who ate the last strawberry oatmeal packet, who used my ponytail holder.  I mean, seriously, it's almost enough to drive someone to drink.  Good thing I don't like the taste of alcohol.  I guess I'm lucky that they don't actually fight, it's mostly petty arguing, but it's still annoying.  So you can imagine my pleasant surprise when I found texts from my oldest to my youngest telling her to make sure she wears warm clothes for school so she doesn't get cold waiting for the bus.  My 13 year old leaves for school almost an hour before my 10 year old.  Isn't that just the sweetest thing?  It gave me a warm, fuzzy feeling.  And it wasn't just one text - it was several texts over several days.   She's looking out for her little sister.  And now we can all let out a collective - AWWWWW

It almost makes me forget about all the unnecessary arguing - ALMOST

What are some sweet things your kids have done for each other without telling you, or without you knowing about it?

See you soon
