I love watching the way these two love each other. They’re happiest when they are as close as can be, always holding hands and cuddling, and if I set them down apart from each other it’s only a matter of minutes before they’ve rolled and wiggled so they can be touching again. It’s pretty fun that they’re built in best friends.
As they get older I know it won’t always be bliss and that they’ll have their share of squabbles, but I’m hopeful to think the special connection which began when they were in the womb will only strengthen as they go through the ups and downs of life. I’m so thankful that they’ll have each other and my prayer is that the Lord will bless their friendship and use it for His glory.
Dear Lord, thank you for the relationship between Emersyn and Mckinley. You have special plans for them, both individually and together, and I am so excited to see all of it unfold as they get older. Please help me to encourage the relationship between them and to guide them in a way so they want to support each other as they grow.
Love,
Amber
