Friends in Low Places

Aiden spent some time with one of his best friends today. It's the friend who makes an appearance in the bathroom every morning like clockwork. Their encounter today was much like it is every day...

First, they catch each other by surprise!

Then their eyes open wide in amazement that their friend has arrived!

Then they hide. These babies are a little shy.

The shyness starts to wear off and they remember how fun it is to spend time with a friend.

They have so many stories to tell each other about the adventures of the past day.

 The stories are hilarious--they can so relate to each other.

 The happy mornings they spend together are priceless.

While the laughter between friends continues, I think to myself, 'What a lucky baby to have such a great friend in his life, and how nice to start off every day with so many belly laughs.' As I laugh along with the two little guys I find myself thinking about the day when Aiden looks for his friend in the mirror only to see himself. Aiden probably won't remember his friend on that day, but I will...and I will miss him so.
