We spent the day with a friend I met online while we were both expecting (a June buddy, so to speak) and her two kids. Elie is a few days younger than Alex, and Sam is 3. We had a wonderful time, depsite the cold, at the zoo (we met "in the middle" in Fredricksburg, MD, an hour-plus drive for us both!). Elie is adorable, and I especially enjoyed meeting Sam, because it gave me some insight as to what it might be like for Alex to be a big brother. Sam was great with both his baby Elie and my Baby Alex, and was just a joy despite the pesky cast on his arm and the scary black swan attack. We all left wishing we lived closer than two hours away!
Sharing is such a wonderful thing. It should happen to more of us more often.
