These two boys hold such a special place in my heart. I met {C} when he was just over a year old and my Jacob and he became friends right off the bat. Their temperaments complimented each other so well and they just really seemed to get along. And the same went for his mommy and me. The four of us spent many mornings walking (they lived just one street over) and would often visit our favorite park down the block or grab coffee together.
We were both pregnant at the same time and when {W} and Abby joined the crew, we upgraded our single strollers to double joggers and continued our morning walking ritual. I can’t tell you how many awesome, encouraging conversations took place as we walked our 4 mile hike (and lost our baby weight together!)
When I heard that they would be moving to Washington my heart ached. I am so excited for them and their new adventure that God has planned out, but I am selfishly sad that there will now be so many miles between us. I know that friendships like these don’t quickly fade away and that we’ll stay close for many years to come.
So we visited our favorite park yesterday to take some photographs of the boys in their favorite location.
I just love this next one of {C}. Totally captures his spirit.
And seriously, just look at this handsome little guy! I love how he just struck a pose!
And I couldn’t resist adding one picture of Jacob and {C}.
Jenn–thanks for your friendship, for sharing your boys with my family, and for all of the great times over the past three years. I hope you love your pictures!
