Good-bye and good times



[Note: I'm sorry the video has no thumbnail, but Blogger doesn't care about fixing this problem with their service. The video will play if you click on it, though!]

Isaac has had several special playmates over the past few years, but I don't think I've mentioned his friend Asher before.

For the last two years Asher and Isaac have gone to the same preschool, but they really only began playing together regularly in March of this year. At that point, Isaac's enthusiasm for school increased greatly, and I could tell he was elated to have a good friend he could see every day. In fact, since Asher was already best friends with a boy named Andrew, Isaac automatically became part of a trio. For months, whenever I asked what Isaac did at school, he replied, "Played with Asher and Andrew."

Even better, Asher also has a younger sister, Julia, who is about two months older than Laurel, which made for perfect playdates. Sadly for us, the other family just moved away. But to say good-bye and to remind us of the good times, I thought I'd share this video of Asher and Isaac laughing together as they played a crashing game at our house, as well as this photo of Julia and Laurel looking very serious as they shared a fire truck and a doll.



[Edited to add: By the way, Laurel is the smaller and darker one, on your right. I know Isaac was always the bigger and blonder kid, but the opposite applies for his sister!]
