Good Friends


These 3 boys are pretty much the cutest when they are all together. Jackson and Bennett are brothers, ages 4 and almost 2, and Justin thinks that they are just the greatest! The best part is, Jackson and Bennett adore Justin as much as he adores them! It is so cute. Whenever they see each other, they honestly light up and HAVE to say hello to each other. At church, this can be a bit of a disruption, but it is so cute, it's hard to reign them in. When Jackson was asked why he loves Justin so much he explained, "It's because Justin just loves me! He never gets upset or tells me I'm doing anything wrong, he just loves me." A great reason for sure, and it's definitely true. In Justin's eyes- he can do no wrong. And vice-versa...Justin can get away with doing anything to these boys- climb on them, take a toy, honestly anything. This past week, Justin was really sick with the flu, so his best friends stopped by to see how he was feeling. It definitely made his day! They all happened to be in green shirts too, which made it the perfect day for photos.

So as long as I'm talking about these 2 boys, I have to mention their Mom, Michelle. She has been the greatest blessing in my life over the past several months. Not only does she willingly watch JR for me when I go teach my lessons every week, but it is so great to have a friend in LA that lives right in my building who is someone I can just pop in on to say hello or ask a favor or a question, etc. Michelle has definitely helped me make the adjustment to "stay at home Mom" this year much easier. They used to live on the other side of the UCLA housing (her husband is in dental school), and I have told her that I think they were honestly inspired to move into this building just for me!
