"Brudders"

I don't often use this word, but I'm going to have to say that watching Tommy and Ben play together is a delight.  I so enjoy watching their relationship as brothers grow through their different stages of development.  They both seem to truly love playing with each other, almost every moment of the day.  Sharing is thankfully not even an issue anymore, since they willingly share with each other now.  One example is that lately Ben has been getting two M&Ms for going potty (one for telling me he had to pee, and another for actually going) and he'll often give one of the M&Ms to Tommy.  Talk about sweet.


I am so thankful that God gave us two boys close together so that they will always have each other.  I'm looking forward to watching their relationship deepen over the years.

Notice Tommy's foot on the box. He and Ben were (gently) pushing each other off the box and jumping.

Even though Tommy was done with his lunch, he stayed in his chair and scooted it closer to Benji so they could giggle together.

Tommy said, "Benji, come sit on my lap!", so he did.
