The Trains...

There is a spot in our neighborhood where you can get a really good glimpse of the MARC train coming in and out of a tunnel. On a weekday they come about every 15 minutes or so and when they come you see one coming out of the tunnel and then about 5 minutes later one going into the tunnel. You feel a big rush of wind as they pass by.

I spent many hours in this spot when Micaiah and Joshua were little...almost every afternoon we would take a walk to see "the trains." They would stand up by the fence to get a really good look at the train coming and going.

Now it's Eli and Will's turn...

Taking full advantage of the time alone with his brother...

Will is now at the age where he is really interacting with his brothers...but there is something special about his relationship with Eli (and I don't completely understand it because Eli struggles to be kind most of the time)...Wednesday when Eli was at preschool, Will wanted to go up the steps so I walked up with him...he immediately went into Eli and Joshua's room and began yelling "E"...when he didn't get an answer he ran over to his bed, climbed in and yelled again...I guess he thought he may still be sleeping...my prayer is that there relationship would strengthen as the days go by...that Eli would realize his important role as a big brother and that I would see more times where he is loving him like this...
