Middle Boy got here this evening. He is spending the weekend with us as a trial run.

I love having him here. This kid is incredible.

When we finished dinner he asked if it would be okay if he did the dishes as a thank you. Really? He's a 14 year-old boy. Older Boy and Younger Boy could learn a lot from him!!

Older Boy is working really hard to be the alpha male in our home. It isn't really working out for him. Middle Boy isn't trying to challenge him for it...it is just happening naturally.

He helped Younger Boy with his lego car and plane and then they played with them for about an hour.

I love that all three are now dowstairs watching a movie and getting ready to go to sleep.

Younger Boy came up to tell me a secret. He said "I hope Middle Boy comes to live with us. He's my new best friend."

Praises for connections and getting along.

Prayers for continued relationship building and peace and harmony in this house this weekend. Prayers that Middle Boy will have a good weekend here.
