Brotherly Kindness

 Recently, Mark got a new bed, specially made to provide comfort and protection for people with disabilities and to be at a height convenient for transfers. It has a 12" high edge all around it, with the front being able to be let down from the outside. Now that there is room in Mark's bed, and perhaps because of the challenge of climbing into it, Austin and Preston can sometimes be found in bed with Mark, playing. This is how I found them one Saturday morning. Notice how Mark has his hand at Austin's face, enjoying the brotherly contact.

 How many people has an 11 year old, a 9 year old and a 5 year old who are all about the same height. I do, and here's proof.

 Mark's caregiver Indie is assisting Austin in giving Mark a piggy back ride.

When we stayed at a hotel in SLC over Christmas, Alyssa and Preston had to share a bed. This is how Rob found them when he woke up early in the morning.
