The best thing about having a baby is their healing powers. No wonder how shitty your day is, you can always count on babies to smooth things out.
Even Nina, every time she needs a moment, runs over to Luca and rubs his head, cheeks and feet with a dazed out look until she can calm down.
It’s sometimes the only way for her to calm down after a rough fight with Mila or a scolding (usually for the right reasons, I think).
Our house has gone from “Mommy makes everything better” to “Here, rub Luca’s tummy, that usually fixes everything.” It works better than anything I can conjure up.
Now the question is, what do I do to calm the other kids down when Luca grows up and will no longer accept bring treated like a petting zoo…..
I’m thinking of getting one of those super round chinchillas. They look like they may have comparable healing powers. I’m gonna need it. Seriously.
どんどん難しくなる上の娘たち、ガチバトルになる事も少なくない。繊細な長女、挑発的な次女、優しいママではなく、おかっちゃん気質の母。瞬時にそこは戦場と化す…
そこに救世主が現れた。琉禾様。仏様。5ヶ月にして10kgの極上マシュマロ肌。ふにゃふにゃで抵抗する術を持たない、癒しのかたまりに家族全員が救われてる。
怒られるようとも、意味の分からない姉妹ケンカしようとも、ベビを撫で倒してるうちに機嫌が治る。もはや本質的な仲直りは不要、無心で赤ちゃんのぷにぷにを撫でれば全てオッケー。
素晴らしい、癒し効果。
今から琉禾の成長が怖い…赤ちゃんではなくなってしまったら、何を癒しにすれば良いの。仲直りの仕方なんて忘れちゃうんじゃないの。
よし、チンチラだ、チンチラを飼おう、と密かに決心した母。
