We have our share of sibling rivalry around here. Some times I think we actually have more than our share, considering the fact that we home school and therefore our kids are around each other constantly. But there are wonderful advantages to that, as well. My kids love each other as fiercely as they sometimes fight. The boys especially are inseparable. They call each other their "Best Buddy". Tonight we left Jaxson with my mom for an overnighter. Vance spent the whole ride home and until he finally fell asleep in his bed howling, sobbing and calling for his "Buddy". "My Buddy!! I missed my Buddyyyy!" This happens every time Jaxson is gone. Even when we recently just dropped him off for a birthday party. After a couple of hours, even Ellie was saying she missed Jaxson. I am grateful for the deep love that they hold for each other. I hope that some day, when they're adults, they'll be as close to each other as my siblings and I are. I always tell my children that their brothers and sisters are built in best friends!

Vance reminds me of that toy that was out when we were little. Do you remember? "My Buddy! My Buddy! Wherever I go, he goes. My Buddy! My Buddy! My Buddy and me!"
I like those sweet moments my kids have as siblings, too.
I can totally hear that song in my head... :p
That's really cool Lani! My sister is a teenager and hates me so it warms me to know your family is on a different track lol
Whatever Nathan... I've seen the pics.. I'm fairly certain your sister adores you. :)
