I'm Deanna. Mom to Ellie 10, Jack 8, Amelia 6, and Evelyn 4. I don't have it all together. I don't create anything spectacular. You won't find anything cool here to post on Pinterest. I'm flawed, but loved. Loved by an amazing husband, 4 healthy, crazy children and most of all by a holy God that has mercy and grace.

Sensitive Boy
Evenings around Amelia without Mommy can be kind of a challenge. When she is tired, she doesn't want to be comforted by anyone but me. So on evenings when I have to be gone and Daddy is on duty... sometimes things can get kind of stressful. She's been known to scream her head off for 2 hours until she finally gives up and falls asleep.
Recently, during one of these fits, (I think it had been going on for quite awhile and Billy was grateful that the big kids were being well-behaved) Billy was croutched down trying to get her comforted in her bouncy seat. Along walked Jack and stopped for a moment, patted Billy's arm, gave it a kiss, and off he went.
Billy said he nearly cried it was so sweet. Jack didn't say a word, but Billy knew that he was just trying to say, "Hang in there, buddy, you can do it!" What a sweet story.
