Best Friends...

Boys,

From the time we found out we were having twins, we were excited at the thought of the bond that you two would share. People always tell you about the special bonds that twins share. It is a bond that usually makes them best friends for life. It is something we are very excited to watch as you guys grow. In such a short time, we have already viewed that special bond that you two share.

I already wrote about the time in the operating room where Braxton grabbed Boston's hand immediately after you were both born. As he did, you both calmed down and stopped crying. It was quite the spectacle.

And, that was just the beginning. In the hospital, you both were much calmer when you were laying side by side in the same crib.

And, when we brought you home it was no different. On your first night home, we tried to place you on seperate sides of the bassinet. But, neither of you liked being on your own side. You would roll off your backs onto your sides so you were facing each other. It always seemed as if you two were moving to the middle to be closer to each other. It doesn't seem possible, but I swear it was happening.

After a while of you guys being fussy, we decided to put you two on the same side of the bassinet. And, what do you know...it calmed you both down so much. You both almost immediately went to sleep.

When you guys are side by side, you seem to be much more comfortable. Your bond is already strong, and I cannot wait to watch it grow.

Love you both.

Love,

Dad
