Sweet big brother

I have to share this tender moment that Isaac and Mark shared this morning, as told to me by Molly.
I think you all know that Lance has already indoctrinated Isaac with all kinds of Star Wars stuff. Isaac knows that when the Star Wars music comes on, the movie will follow. It really messes him up when Lance plays a Star Wars CD and there is no movie on the TV.
Anyway back to my story. Mark was sleeping in his little jumper chair in their frontroom. Isaac took his little stuffed Chewbacca doll to Mark and set it on his chest. He then tried to put Mark's arm around Chewbacca, so he could hold it. And then Isaac put his water cup next to Mark also. (These 2 things are essentials for Isaac when he sleeps and he was sure that his little brother needed to sleep with them also).

Isaac is frightened by Mark. All of Isaac's other toys just sit quietly, but this Mark toy moves. Isaac will get brave and touch Mark and be close to him and then when Mark stretches or moves, Isaacs runs away. We all know that that will not last for very long.
