WHAT A GOOD BROTHER (WORDLESS WEDNESDAY W/ LINKY)

I was upstairs gathering my cloth diapers to bring outside to line dry when I came down the stairs and saw this. It melted my heart.

My 6 year old being mommy's helper, he knew I was busy so he took it upon himself to grab one of his reading books and read to his 2 little brothers. Even the baby sat and listened! Priceless in my eye's! A picture just isn't enough to capture the sweetness of this.

    That is so nice of big brother. James will help Ryan read too - only in this case there is usually some form of bribery involved. ;)
