Brothers and Best Friends

Benji and Sammy have the best brother relationship. They play great together and fight well together as well. Ever since Sammy was born I could see really easy how Benji feels about his little brother. He plays with him, keeps him away from things that could hurt him, etc. Recently Benji is an avid teacher to Sammy of 2 things...1. Benji is determined that Sammy starts walking. He'll pick him up by the hands and help him walk around the room. 2. Benji is also adamant that Sammy learns how to play fight. Which makes me a little edgy but Sammy absolutely loves. As far as Sammy goes, Benji wears his heart on his sleeve.
Then there is Sammy's feeling toward Benji. Normally we see Sammy following his big brother all around the house. Sammy loves to take Benji's toys which causes a fight. Sammy being the one who usually wins b/c Benji doesn't have the heart to hurt him. Sammy doesn't show much affection toward Benji at all....At least not while anyone is looking. I realized just how much Sammy cares for Benji the other morning. After Albert left for work, Benji crawled into my bed where Sammy was already sleeping and fell back to sleep himself. About an hour later Sammy woke up. He saw Benji asleep. He then layed his head on Benji's for a little while then started giving him kisses on his cheek. Then he layed down and put his arm around his big brother and waited for him to wake up. They are so sweet together and such a blessing to have in our lives.
