In my attempt to organize all my photos from the last jillion years, I periodically spend an enormous amount of time scanning, editing and filing pictures away on my external hard drive. This has been the case this past week. After work, after my dose of The Young And The Restless, after dinner (those two happen at the same time), I’ve been working at organizing these pictures. It’s a huge undertaking as I literally have boxes and boxes of photos.

This set of pictures has always made me laugh. I remember this moment like it was last week. I was hiding, unbeknownst to little Adam, watching him innocently sit there sipping his drink out of his big boy cup.

Then his brother spotted him. I guess it was Chris’ big boy cup.

It could be that I’m an evil, bad mother, but this makes me laugh every time I look at it. It so represents the struggle these two have had their entire brotherly lives trying to assess the proper pecking order. They did a lot of this. Typical little boys.

But then, there were THESE moments that make my heart melt like butter.

Brotherly love. Isn’t that the sweetest?
