We're Going to be Friends

There are times that I see a glimpse of the future...the good friends that my boys are going to be. Sure they will have days that they hate each other. I think they already do. But there are times that I see them playing together and I can just tell they are going to be the best friends.

One afternoon Roman wanted someone to play with. Hudson was lying on the floor on a blanket and Roman came over to him and gave him one of his cars. Then he found another car and laid down on the floor next to him so that they could play cars together. Hudson didn't really understand what Roman wanted him to do, mostly he just sucked on the ski rack, but it was nice that he wanted to share. He wanted to play with his brother, and he wanted to show him what you are supposed to do with a car.



A few nights ago as we were kneeling down to say bedtime prayers with Roman we had a case of the sillies. The boys were playing off of each other, one would giggle which would make the other giggle. I couldn't help but smile. Spencer said "You know this is only going to get worse." I hope so! I know giggling during prayer is not something I should encourage, but I remember giggling through so many prayers with my sisters. I remember one person would start to giggle and by the end of the prayer we would all be collapsed on the ground all laughing that deep belly laugh. I love that my boys are starting to find that in each other.

  1. Oh, boy--I remember doing that in the MTC even! Kneeling shoulder to shoulder even if you can stifle the sounds, eventually you can feel the shoulders shaking and it all erupts. Such fun! Glad your boys have each other!!
