Brotherly Love

When I was a little girl I wanted so badly to have a house full of siblings. I would dream of having brothers and sisters that were close in age with me. I thought it was so cool that my friends all had built-in friends, especially once summer rolled around. Even now, I love seeing how close most of my childhood best friends are with their brothers & sisters as adults. It's such a neat relationship that I never had. 

Even though I am an only child & won't get to experience having a brother & sister, I am so glad that my boys will. When I would dream of having a brother or sister, their relationship is what I saw in my head. Lots of laughter, some silly fights, lots of playing, & having that special bond that only they can share.

I love the moments while I am getting ready & I sneak into the play room just to watch them interact. The way they sit next next to each other & play with trucks. The way they chase each other through the tunnel. The way they both make the same exact sound while they "mow." The way Grayson helps Griffin reach things that are up too high. They way that they can make each other laugh uncontrollably.
 
Watching Grayson & Griffin together makes my heart so full. I can't believe they are ours. I think the best gift we've given our boys is each other. Their personalities are so different but the bond they have is unbreakable. I pray that they are always best friends.

So sweet! Siblings are such a special thing. I am sort of an only child as my parents divorced and remarried. I have two half sisters and two half brothers (one set by each parent) but they are all a good bit younger than me so I didn't really grow up with siblings. Like you, I have enjoyed watching my two "play" together. Well, they are just now getting to the point of being able to interact more but it has just melted my heart!! Your boys are so cute together!! :) I had a play date yesterday with a new friend and her little boy...he reminded me so much of Griffin!

I love seeing your two boys together! I however am not an only child I have a younger brother & truthfully I dont have a relationship with him! I truly feel as though I am an only child! I rarely see him, he never comes to family things, nore family vacations.. The only reason I know I have a brother is because I grew up around when little.. The sad part is that I know my children will never know him or that I will most likely never know his children someday & that alone is sad to some extent :(
