His brother's keeper

“Children of the same family, the same blood, with the same first associations and habits, have some means of enjoyment in their power, which no subsequent connections can supply." ~Jane Austen

Every once in a while, Bubby and Mac get to have "sleepovers" together. They had one last week, with Bubby hosting Mac in his bed for the night.

Being a gracious host and all, Bubby read the bedtime story to his little brother...

 

And being a thoughtful brother and all, Bubby protected his reportedly "scared" little brother through the night...

Sweetest. Sleepover. Ever.

Sweetest big brother ever, too.

Today's question:

When it comes to relationships with your siblings, are you more often the protector or the protected?
