This is so freaking sweet 😭 🥰 Recently my friend was weirded out when I mentioned my husband brushes my hair most nights but to me it is a very lovely, tender, completely normal thing 😂 Need him to learn how to braid though!! Also, your boys watched Puffin Rock?! I didn’t think that show left Northern Ireland!!

Thank you Reb 💕 It IS such a lovely tender thing! And PUFFIN ROCK IS THE BEST!!! We watched that and Sarah and Duck on Netflix and my children legitimately started sounding British and Irish for a minute there 😂 Mossy was my fav 🥹
