I was slow to get out of bed this morning so DS2 joined me. A little while later DS1 joined us.  DS2 says to DS1 as he climbed in to bed, " I love you so much!" I couldn't believe my ears. I thought my heart would explode.  Then he gave him a great big hug. It gets better. DS1 asked DS2 if he would pray for a cut he has on his knee; so DS2 prayed for his brother's cut. They are 6 years old. As I sat down to type this on the computer, I can still hear then chatting away in my bed.

Growing up, I was not a good sister to my little brother. As a result, we never had a relationship. I have always prayed that my boys would be the best of friends and to get along really well; even better then most siblings (because of the way I treated my brother).  This morning was music to my ears. I also believe that homeschooling has helped them to be closer, because they can spend so much time together. I can see that reading other people's blogs also.  They talk about how well their children get along. As of right now, my boys spend an equal amount of time getting along and fighting, but this morning I saw hope, that maybe, some day, there will be more time getting along then fighting.
