Best buddies

What can be said about the bestest friend a 3-yr-old could have?

For a long time, I've wanted to record by blog the awesome bond these two little boys share. J and P are just about as close as brothers. They talk about each other daily, they never tire of each other's company, more days pass that they are together than that they are not.

(And their mommies are great friends, too. Which definitely helps.)

For over a year, J has spent 2 days a week over at P's house while I work. These two little guys were born a mere 3 months apart, and they have become each other's biggest fans.

The very first time we had P over, they were both around 18 months old. I took this little video:

Last week (a year and a half later), I took this one:

So as you can see, the more things change....

I couldn't possibly post all the adorable pics I have of the two of them; we hang out pretty much constantly. But here are some gems:
At the waterpark we frequent in the summer.
At the car park, P hitching a ride while a much scrawnier J obligingly provides the manpower.
At Beantown, on a rainy Saturday.

They are each other's protectors and bodyguards. If another kid tries to mess with one of them, you can be sure the other will be at his defense.

(It should be said, they fight sometimes, too.)

J tells me often, out of nowhere:

P is my BEST friend!

I am so grateful for cute little P, my son's best buddy.
