Love in the nursery

We have been in the nursery for a year now. The kids are pretty special.

Hadley is almost three. She and Steve have this thing going. When the older kids were still in nursery, all the boys flocked to Steve. It is a magic he has. There was someone always tackling him, sitting on his lap, or showing him a special toy. Hadley didn’t mind the competition. She always made sure Steve had time for her. One day, we were getting ready for the lesson. Steve was trying to get one of the boys to sit on his lap and stop running around. He asked, “Won’t you sit on my lap?” Hadley quickly took stock of the situation and realized the boy was not going to sit down, so she ran over and sat on Steve’s lap. So cute. Last week, Lochland (for of our new recruits) was NOT happy to be in nursery. I figured Teddy Grahams were a good bribe. Lochland could not be bought off that easily, but the girls thought it was great. I kept getting them out of the box and offering one to whomever looked hungriest. Hadley reached her hand into the box to get a handful – but they weren’t for her. She took them over to Steve, who hadn’t had any. Such love.
