Brothers

Life with two boys is never dull.  They keep me on my toes.  In the last year, Will and Ben have really bonded.  It makes my heart happy when I see them laughing and playing together.  Sometimes the laughter and playing results in a  messy room with every single toy on the floor but it's all worth it.  It's so neat that they have fun together and genuinely like each other.

If you've been keeping up with my blog for the last few weeks, you know things have been pretty crazy in our lives.  The boys recently started daycare while Mark and I are at work.  I was really nervous about the transition, but they have done well considering the circumstances.  One of the things that gave me peace of mind as they went to daycare was that they would have each other.  They are in different classes at the daycare, but the teachers have been super flexible while the boys adjust.  They've allowed them to see each other and play if one is feeling a little lonely or sad.  I've been told that hasn't happened very much (thank goodness!). 

Will and Ben are still very young, but I hope this bond that they have will only continue to grow stronger as they get older.  They will always have each other.
