Just Like Big Brother



When you ask Benjamin what he wants to be when he grows up, he says, "Big Brother." Anything Caleb does, Benjamin studies him for a bit, and then attempts the same feat. Though we have days where we try to bash one another's head in with a bat or lock one another in a dark bathroom, the boys are reaching a relationship where they enjoy one another, which is one thing Jamie and I have prayed for. It's also one of the reasons we've kept them home with us up until now. When out, Caleb is determined to stay at Benjamin side. One day I asked him about it, and he said, "But Mommy, no one understands Benjamin like me, and I have to protect him." That was what I was thankful for that night.
