Real pals

At a birthday party the other day, a mom from the preschool inquired about the age difference between Zoe and Avery. After I told her she smiled and noted, “Every time I see them together, they’re holding hands and having fun together. They seem like real pals.” I thought about that for quite a bit after. It’s true: They really are good friends. They bicker and have conflicts at times, and we now see some sibling rivalry that we never used to see, but all in all they’re each other’s favorite playmate and confidante. I was once aiming to have kids three years apart (which seemed ideal to me) but two years, seven months has been a-okay so far.
