Very soon, in fact, two weeks to be exact, we will be welcoming our youngest son to the outside world and our family. In the midst of this upcoming transition in our lives, our oldest son has been displaying some strange behavior due to anxiety about his whole world changing.
But even though it has been challenging lately with keeping up with our 3 year olds ever changing moods, it has been a blessed time too. I am enjoying the little moments with him, snuggling watching a movie, his daily bedtime ritual complete with story time and more snuggling.
We lucked out with our oldest. For the time being, he is still a big snuggled, hugger and overall compassionate, caring kiddo. Of course he can turn into a bear at a moments notice, but it helps to remember the snuggly times in the midst of the chaos.
The transition of going from three to four is going to be challenging and exciting for all of us. It will be hard and a blessing for each of us in different ways. And once our youngest is a little older, we'll all really get to have some fun, especially our oldest son, because he will be able to teach his brother so many things, both good and bad. ;)
Transition always has its scary moments and blessings. It is focusing on the blessings in the midst of transition that make transition easier for all involved. Thanks be to God for all the blessings he has given our family and continues to pour out upon us daily.
