Arlin made all the rounds…Mrs. Boyat, Stella’s teacher and Lucas’ Mom (one of Stella’s good buddies) all held the Captain for a bit…

poor Stell had to think fast and keep her little brother’s paws out of her desk!

I think he “squeeked” when we gave him a mini cupcake of his own!

Stella…”Ella” as Arlin calls her is SUCH a good big sister. She loves her little brother dearly. And boy let me tell you…this little guy thinks she’s magical.

Arlin sat on Stella’s lap for a music game…he even danced a little with the kids.

I am so glad Anna Maria (Chad’s Mom) and I made our way up the mountain to Stella’s Valentine’s Day school party. Arlin was SOOO excited to see his big sister. He marched right in and reached up to sit on her lap. He didn’t miss a beat and was right with the action the entire time. I’m pretty sure Stella got a kick out of showin’ off her baby brother to her fellow classmates too.

After the party we drove Miss Stella to her Mom’s work at the bottom of the mountain to drop her off. Arlin cried when Stella walked away from the car and reached his little hand towards the window for her…it about broke my heart, both Anna Maria and I teared up. This isn’t the first time Arlin has gotten upset when Stella has left us for the weekend. I can only imagine it’s going to get harder the more attached they grow. *sigh*
