The Gift Of An Unusual But Lovely Sibling Interaction

A few days ago Camille asked to watch a movie she had borrowed from my parent's house, Belle's Magical World, in my bedroom. Seeing as we no longer own a DVD player and gave away all our movies, I had to set up my computer on my bed for her to watch.

About fifteen minutes in Clara hears the music playing and crawls up on top of my bed. I assume she is going to go straight for the keyboard and try to grab the computer and get Camille's panties in a wad. Because Clara loves herself some tapping on the keyboard. And Camille loves herself some Belle's Magical World. Or anything with Belle, really.

To my surprise, Clara just sits there and watches as if she just wanted to be near her sister. It was a precious sight, one that doesn't happen too often, so I ran to grab my phone to take a video.

I returned a few moments later and noticed Camille mimicking Clara's behaviors. It was the cutest thing. Purposeful interaction was occurring.

When this happens, intentional back-and-forth engagement between my girls, time kind of stops in our house. These moments are so rare you just have to sit back and treasure every second.

This video might not look like much to some, but to me it's everything. Thank you, Jesus for this gift of a cherished moment.
