"Hold on tight, and don't let go."

I've had a dilemma for awhile now... I don't know how to keep all three kids with me when I have them by myself. They would all three like for me to hold them, but that's just not possible. 

Ivy is pretty good at holding my hand and walking with me, but Israel has always hated holding my hand. He just wants to run free. So I'm always struggling to keep him with me in the hallways.

However...this past week, I discovered that for some reason, Israel doesn't mind holding Ivy's hand. And Ivy (the little rule-follower that she is), takes my command very seriously when I say, "Hold Israel's hand really tight, and do not let go."


It's the little things...my life just got a little bit easier. :)
