This photo was taken back in late May but it is still the background photo on my phone home screen.
I love the autumn leaves behind the kids and the late afternoon light.
I love how spontaneous that this photo is. Mum had been with us for the afternoon and was about to head home. I saw the light and grabbed my camera. Mum is standing behind Sam, holding him secure on our tall fence!
I love that they are holding hands.
I love that the kids thought is was so hilarious to be sitting so high!
I love that they are wearing 'whatever'. It's a true snapshot of then. Grubby pants and everything a little mismatched. Evidence that Tilly chose her own wardrobe and that Sam always gets dirty so there's no point making too much of an effort for a home day. ;)
I love that I can see their friendship and their love for each other in this photo.
It is my prayer that as the years rush ahead of us, quicker than I'd like a lot of the time and slower than ever at others (the joys of poor sleepers!), that these two would remain friends. That they would share a close bond over time that endures childhood squabbles and teenage issues, friendship clashes and problems real or imagined. That they would remain family to each other and choose to be friends in the years ahead.
