abby..such a good sister!!

I am still amazed from what happened last night. We were sitting down for dinner. Abby liked what we were having so she ate really well (not usually the case). Emma did not want to eat or even sit in her chair. I had to buckle her in and make her sit there until she ate SOMETHING!! I was in the process of cleaning up, Aaron was in the living room with Jonas and poor Emma was still sitting at the table crying because she wanted out of her chair. Now the amazing part...Abby comes over to Emma and tells her she needs to eat so she can play. Emma right away says "ok Abby". And then Abby feeds Emma. Aaron and I were so shocked that we just sat there listening to the two of them talk. Abby would say "open...now swallow" and "good job emma" and every once in awhile she would do the "airplane" into emma's mouth. And sure enough Emma didn't take just a few bites, but EVERYTHING that was on her plate..and she didn't cry or refuse with Abby. We are thinking of having Abby just take over from now on.
