The BEST things...

Ashton learning to read and now wanting to be like his big brother and picks up a book to read on his own....and exclaiming how "I love to read!"

Ethan giving his brother compliments when doing a job good or encouragement when a job seems hard to do.

Ashton offering to make his brothers Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich all on his own, even though he's never done it before, and doesn't like PB&J.

Ethan reading a 108 page story out loud, even though I'm sure his jaw hurt after a while, because his brother wanted to hear "just one more page!"

Ashton secretly sneaking up to Ethan's room to make his bed in the morning for him.

Ethan snuggling up next to me on the couch and whispering that I'm the best mommy in the world.

Hearing my children in prayer.

Having all of us work on a coloring project, same page...three crayons, with a sense of accomplishment, together.
