Brothers and buddies
When we were waiting to adopt, I often worried over the age gap between our kids. So many of our friends seem to have children two years apart and with each month that passed without any adoption news I fretted, "Oh, no, they'll be at least three years a part!" "3 1/2 years . . . they'll never be close!" "3 years and 8 months is too big a gap!" Now, having our boys nearly 4 years a part, I wouldn't change it for the world. Matthew could not ask for a more adoring big brother, and Cameron couldn't possibly have more fun than he does with a baby brother. Cameron is Matthew's protector, teacher and entertainer. Matthew is Cameron's admirer, playmate and best secret-keeper! Just look at these best friends!

It's great to hear how well they are getting along!
3 1/2 years? Me and you are over 6 years apart. Having older siblings makes life alot easier. They break Mom and Dad in, have the whole school things down, and tell off the lifeguards at the pool when they mess with you (remember that Sharon?)
I hate to say it, but... I TOLD you so! :)
It's true . . . Christine DID tell me so!
And I did tell off the lifeguard at the pool. NO ONE picks on MY little brother!
