Last Night

After John's emotional reaction to what he thought was mom and dad ignoring him and comforting Jake.... He told me sobbing and hurt with deep unseen before facial expressions that he felt "no one understands me" I held him and told him I would always understand him, even if he's older and thinks I don't, because he's my first born son. I jokingly told himI baked him in my belly and birthed him out of me and nursed him from my "boobies." He finally let out a chuckle--it's all about the potty talk words--We laughed and hugged. Jake whispered in my ear, "Tell John I understand him." I die. It was so heartfelt. So sweet. Such brotherly love and...so much more. I know when he's feeling mom and dad and the world don't understand him he will always be able to count on his brother to be there and understand.
