14 months

I love this sequence of pictures that for once I was fast enough to grab the camera while they were still in action. Hallel was helping Simeon down the walk and he was letting her hold his hand.
These two are such good buddies. They hardly do anything without the other and are both pretty protective of each other. I am so thankful the Lord knew what He was doing in having them 14 mos apart. Hallel loves teaching Simeon new things and encouraging him when he does it well (although she can be a bossy sister at times too). And Simeon is already learning the art of being silly. He loves to make up games and make Hallel laugh. His new trick is to toot (that's not new) but to say "Hallel" after he does and blame it on her.
I hope they stay close forever.
