Tonight Rob and I were tucking Trey in.
We were having a moment with him,
telling him how very proud we are of him
and the progress he is making with his reading.
"Trey," I murmured, "We are so happy we had you.
Our family wasn't complete without you."
"Yeah!" said Trey,
"and Chris would only be a half. Chris and I are connected."
I love the love between these two boys.
Trey literally sees himself as Chris's completion,
as the half that makes Chris a whole.
How completely sweet is that?

It's really lovely when your kids have a relationship like that. Zane and Taylor are very connected and it makes me feel much calmer about their teen years.
That is so sweet! This is the kind of relationship I hope for my kids, even if it doesn't happen until they're a bit older.
That literally brings tears to my eyes -- so sweet! Cristina
It made me teary too, Cristina!
Now, I just have to remember he felt that way if (when) they get to that bickering age.
