Today I’m thankful for the way our kids like to buddy up with each other.  Every day, sometimes every hour, it is a different pair or trio.  This particular afternoon it was Jack and Elsie.  They both like to wear hats.  They both like oats for lunch.  They look out for each other’s interests.  For instance, today when we were driving, Elsie pointed out an orange truck to Jack.  She knows he loves orange and probably thought the truck factor was a bonus.  I love that sometimes he will concede and play house with her, and other times she will agree to play ninja with him.  I’m thankful they can encourage each other and challenge each other in school.  I’m thankful for this sweet little duo who bring so much energy and spice to my life.
