This photo has nothing to do with the quote of the day, except that this photo shows one of the many wonderful aspects of Kyle that make him one of my best friends in the whole wide world: his expressiveness for his love of life. If you click on the photo you can see it larger to get a sense of the expression on his face. He was riding his scooter in our driveway, at the end of a long day, in the pouring rain, and he was just loving life. Being around Kyle is like being with someone who’s emotions are transparent. He’s just right there, right at the surface, almost all the time. It is one of the things that make him so easy to love. Anyway… the quote of the day is from Kyle~~ This evening the four of us were driving in the car to a Housewarming Party for Alex and her roommate Esther (they recently moved into a new house). We were talking about who would be at the party, etc. To Kyle and Owen I said, “Boys, who is Alex’s best friend?” They both said, “Esther!!!” I said, “Yes! That’s right!” Then I asked them, “Who is your best friend?” Without any hesitation, Kyle immediately said: “Mama and Papi.” Braydon and I thought we were going to die of love for this child. (Note: Owen said his best friend was “Ta-vik-a” — click here, and then shortly after Kyle changed his mind and said his best friend was “Ta-vik-a” too. ?!)
