Sure, Mama, I’ll Hug Him

I asked him to hug his brother. He resisted. I firmly told him to hug his brother. This is what I got:

brothers hugging

It looks like he is crush-hugging him. Sometimes it’s just better to let things happen naturally.

  • Hahhaha this is so cute and funny!!!! Thanks for sharing this fun moment out of your day!

  • AHH! That is one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen, forced or not. You always make me so excited that I’m going to have two boys.

  • Penelope

    Two boys are the BEST! They are best friends and play mates πŸ™‚ It’s great for parents to have one of each, but it’s great for the kids when they are the same gender and can have a lifelong best friend.

  • What a priceless and adorable picture!

  • my gosh.. this is beautiful – crushing or not BLOW IT UP! haha πŸ™‚

  • Aww!

  • It is still sweet thought.

  • Mickey

    That’s how my son hugs everyone, whether he’s happy or not. We have to brace ourselves. πŸ™‚

  • What a lovely photo of your boys!

  • That is such a wonderful shot of them! It’s such a trying experience to get my children to look at the camera, especially my feisty and energetic daughter. πŸ™‚

  • Haha, sounds like something my kids would do. Its a cute picture, though!

  • lol I love the look on his face. It’s like he is saying okay, how do you like this?

  • Awww… sometimes I’m resolved that we’re only going to have one child. But then I worry about Evan missing out on the magic of siblings. They’re so cute together!

  • It’s still a cute picture!!

  • I think it’s still an adorable picture regardless.

  • It seems like kids will always do the opposite of what you want them to. Regardless, it’s a precious picture.

  • This is such an adorable picture! Its so natural as well, as you can see in his eyes he really doesnt want to hug him, but that there is love. Fantastic shot well done !

  • Aaawww that’s so sweet! At first, I read this as “i told him to firmly hug his brother.” I was thinking.. well, he did! πŸ™‚

  • Mellisa

    That has got to be one of the sweetest photos I have ever seen.

  • OMG, that picture is priceless though πŸ™‚

  • How funny! Even if it’s staged, it’s still nice to capture brotherly love!

  • It is a loving squeeze! lol

  • Oh my gosh how adorable they are! Beautiful!

  • Best picture ever! There are few things better than love between siblings.

  • Ha ha ha – head lock! Future wrestler in the making πŸ™‚
