They didn't stand a chance!

Malachi celebrated his 2nd birthday last weekend.

Isaac was so excited to give him his present (a.k.a. help him open it!)

Then Isaac realized that the party, cake, presents, etc were not for him.

I mean really.... who invented celebrating birthdays?

Did they realize how torturous this event might be?

Not to worry, the trauma quickly passed and it was then that we realized....


They didn't stand a chance!!!

Isaac and Malachi were meant to be friends.

Okay really.... They were destined to be friends!

and if not destiny

then divine intervention.

Someone up above had a grand plan when these mommies got pregnant.

These boys adore each other.

Isaac claims that this is "My Malachi" and Malachi does the same for Isaac.

Now that we have overcome the trauma of a 2 year old birthday party,

we have to work on accepting the fact that going to see "my Malachi" might not happen

each and every day of his life!

They are following in their older brothers' footsteps for friendship (as well as their parents).

We are lucky enough to have extended our "family" by adding the Ramirez clan.

Having friends like family is such a blessing!!!

I am so thankful that these two boys have each other for friends.

To watch them is to love them and appreciate the treasures these two boys are.
