hero

meet james

he's my 8 year old nephew.  

i was so lucky to 'nanny' james and zachary for about 4 straight years 

sometimes i feel like i have a special bond to them 

we love having them and their sister hazel over for sleep overs 

this last april when james was baptized i was shocked to have james ask me to speak 

last week james had to think of a hero to talk about in scouts 

we assumed he would pick someone like obama, because he's just that kinda kid

well turns out that he picked sam to be his hero

 

I couldn't have thought of  a better person

sam was super flattered to hear that james picked him as his hero 

james said sam was his hero because 

'he always makes everyone in the family happy' 

whenever james is around you'll find him glued to sam's side 

they have a special bond and friendship that is so fun to see.
