Luke loves his little sister, he can not walk by without touching, poking, hugging or kissing his baby Cora. He gets this look on his face when he can't resist, he grits his teeth with this toothy grin and you know he is going in for a squeeze or multiple kiss on the head sometimes the loves he gives her are not as gentle as we would like. Luke has now seen Caleb stand while holding her so he tried it the other day walking her across the room, as I race to meet him. She is going to be one tough chic with those brothers of hers.

Yesterday Luke got a balloon from the grocery store and when he got home he decided he wanted me tie a plastic bag on the string because he was going to send a stuffed animal and dvd to Jesus. Since the balloon couldn't lift those items we settled on a picture he drew and tied it to the end of the string. I loved watching him let it go and watch go up and up and him get more excited. He is such a sweet boy.
