A Friend For Life

Just real quick I wanted to talk about the blossoming relationship that is Syd & Dean. Sure I could have put this in the big update but I though this deserved special recognition :)
So, just within the last few weeks Dean & Syd's relationship as brother and sister has really taken off! Generally speaking they have aways got along but recently they have finally started playing together. They will go into Syd's room and tend to her dolls and feed them and put them to sleep or go to Dean's room or the play room and construct lego skyscrapers...they have been attempted a few games of baseball.

It's so awesome to see this bond actually developing. It makes me think of what the future will be like...they both enjoy being with and playing with their friends but a brother or sister is truly a friend for life. Like any other relationship there will always be ups and down but in the end I hope that with Nick and my guidance they will grow up to have the kind of relationship that they will both really cherish and not take for granted. I really want then to be able to look back at all the good times together and hold a special place in their lives for each other. I know the relationship dynamic will change as Ry gets bigger and interacts with them more but for now its so cute to see them finally appreciate one another.

I think Syd put it best when she said...."Dean's my best fend"
