The other night Drew informed me that he and Emma were laying down together having a conversation the day before that went like this.
Emma: "I got all greens today Drew!"
Drew: "Did you Emma? That's great. I did too."
Emma: "Drew, you have a binder like me?" (They send her sheets home in her notebook.
Drew: "Yep, I sure do."
Emma: "Can I see your binder Drew? Have green checks too, just like me?"
Drew: "I got all greens. I will show you tomorrow."
Emma: "Okay, Drew. PE tomorrow too, like me?"
Drew: "Yes, I have PE tomorrow just like you!"
Emma: "Wear PE shoes, like me?"
Drew: "Yes, just like you."
Of course Drew doesn't get the behavior sheets like Emma does but yesterday after school, when he went to his bookbag and pulled this out, I couldn't help but tear up.

He took the time to make a behavior sheet for himself (of course giving himself all greens- haha!) to show Emma. She LIT up when he showed it to her. She asked him to read them all to her, while she held the paper. When he was done, she said "Good job all greens Drew. I'm so proud of you!" and gave him a thumbs up.
Just another reminder that sometimes it truly is about the small things. I am so grateful for the wonderful, amazing big brother Drew is. Emma adores him and I am so thankful for his heart.
Drew, you made my week.
What an awesome big brother Drew is!! Emma is very blessed!!!
