BFF...

For those who don't remember this, BFF = Best Friends Forever. We actually used to also say "ILY BiFF!" for "I Love You, Best Friend Forever!" Isn't high school fun? lol See, we were texting without phones even! haha!

Here are some pics Jane took one night. I was feeding Joshua but didn't want to miss these moments so I told her to grab the camera. I cherish all of their time together and wish I could store it up in a bottle to savor for the rest of our lives...

Jeremiah has an incredible bond with Grandma. He is four now and she turned 80 this year. But even so, the two are like best buddies. They are just so happy together. She seems to come alive when Jeremiah comes over and all her aches, pains and ails seem to disappear while he is there. And he adores her too. He begs to visit and wants to stay all day long. He's got a thing for Papaw too! Jeremiah can't seem to get enough of them. And I wouldn't have it any other way!


Left these snapshots unedited. Lots of busy colors and patterns but B&W took the life out of them so I left them SOOC.

Jeremiah bossing Grandma, probably telling her what finger she is wrapped around!

Snuggle, giggle, wrestling time!

"No! It's MY cup, Grandma!!!" (more giggling)

I love how happy they are together:

Telling Papaw he wants him and Grandma to "fight" over him (involves lots of pulling and tickling!):

Love it!!!



Mommy Moment: It was approaching bedtime and Jeremiah wanted to stay up and play with Daddy more. Daddy gave in to a few more minutes and not long after that J let out a huge yawn. Daddy sarcastically said, "Sounds like some one is really tired. Wonder who that can be?" Jeremiah surprised us with his sleepy reply, "It's me, Daddy!" So off to bed he went, quietly and cooperatively!

    I love how you left these pics SOOC. I think sometimes we get carried away with making our pictures "perfect" that we forget sometimes it's just better to have captured a special moment and this was definitly a special moment. I love how you can really see their special relationship here.

    I love these. I feel the same way sometimes about my own mother. With Isaiah on the way - I see how my mother's health has decreased over the past few years especailly the last one & I just see how precious time is going to be for him to have time with her.

    AWWW! These moments are so precious. They are perfect without all the technical junk! I love that you have these moments on "film" for J to look back on when he gets older and remember his special relationships with them. It's a beautiful thing!

    Such a great moment captured here. My kids only have one grandma and grandpa that they rarely get to see.

    That is so amazing that they have such a unique bond...I truly think that some people are just connected, you know?

    My mom and Mikki are close as well. They talk on the phone even!
