"Braxton is my Hero!"

I have been so impressed with Blaze's preschool...so naturally I was excited to attend "Hero Day" at his school. When we arrived, there were fathers from the military, fire station, and police station. It was touching to see these fathers in uniform as we gathered around to say the Pledge of Allegiance. The kids sang some songs they had been working on, and we finished with chips and hot dogs. The best part was when the firemen turned on their hose and sprayed anybody who wanted to get wet! My boys were soaked, but smiling from head to toe. Blaze had to write something about his hero and attach a picture that was displayed with the other collages. He chose Braxton and said, "Braxton is my hero, because he is my best friend and he plays with me." I thought is was so sweet, but realized how very true his statement is. They can certainly fight like brothers, but they have so many tender moments that make their mother shed tears of joy! I hope they remain best friends through their growing years and into adulthood.
