A Brother Like No Other

Sometimes the days around here are hard. The boys fight. They argue. They don't always share. And their age difference makes for a large gap in terms of loved activities and playing together.

Here Brayden is 4 years old and Gage is only 3 months old. You can just see the innocence of little Brayden's face and the then still new thrill of being a new big brother. Gage, a happy baby, was always one to ham it up for the camera, just excited to be in the spotlight.

Most of the time my boys don't mesh well. Brayden is coming into his own as a young man and is influenced by a lot of outside sources at school and at church. Gage is struggling with still wanting to be the baby of the family and wanting to have all of the attention on him all of the time while he learns to do things in his own way. But there are still those times, as fleeting as they may be, where I see that sweet, happy four year old and that bubbly, smiling 3 month old, who are enamoured to just be in each others company.
