Wrigglebot has generally been very good with his little sister, he pats her head and is fascinated with her hands and feet. Each morning he comes into our room and checks that she is still there and well before coming to us. He gives her her dummy and proudly points her out as his sister. However, he also starts crying if I am holding her and can’t hold him and then there is the throwing. He throws things at her or rather toward her while she is lying in her cot. Sometimes it is a toy, sometimes a blanket, other times a box of wipes. So here is my question does he throw things out of good or bad intentions?

I like to think that he is giving her toys to play with, blankets to keep warm with and wipes, well I am stuck on that one, but I fear something more sinister. As a mother you always want to think the best of your child but in this situation I simply don’t know. He still can’t communicate well enough to explain why he throws things at her, but maybe that is a good thing because for a while longer I can still believe that though misguided he is still my little angel, and I don’t think this sentiment will last all that much longer as he approaches two.
