I have a fantasy similar to yours :)<BR/>My boys are 22 months apart and closer than I ever imagined they were. Though we did intentially have them close in age on purpose, I didn't expect it as my sis and I are 13 months apart and have never been close. It's one of the best feelings in the world to look at them and know they'll be Ok, no matter what, because they have each other.Amy Yhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06303953793008491241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215073200757285145.post-11550104398469292642008-03-31T16:15:00.000+02:002008-03-31T16:15:00.000+02:00I love that picture of the boys! I think they will continue to be very close. Sometimes the differences are what provides the glue. <BR/>Are you sure about living on the same street though, I mean, having lived with my folks about 5 streets away ...

At 22, 18, and 12, they still play toegther in the sea like friendly dolphins.

My two uncles, who are three years apart in age and couldn't be more UNLIKE each other in about every other way, are incredibly close and are always there for each other. I think it's great, and I hope your vision for the future comes true.

My older brother is only 10 months older than I am and we were very close growing up. In 5th grade, one of our teachers was absent and they showed a movie rather than getting a sub. It was a horror movie -I think it was the Texas Chainsaw Massacre - my mother was furious and me, with my overactive imagination, I had nightmares for a week. My brother slept on my floor every night so I wouldn't have to be alone.Mary Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14236441806234261588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215073200757285145.post-68215045672539742362008-03-30T14:31:00.000+02:002008-03-30T14:31:00.000+02:00What a lovely post! Additionally, the picture of them snoozing is just beautiful. I think you have a very wonderful hope there, and I think it's surely one that will happen. I am close with both of my sisters, and we all live close. It is awesome. My boys are three years apart and they share room and though we have two other bedroom, they do not want to part!Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00447128976667732712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215073200757285145.post-69480767766495529122008-03-30T04:25:00.000+02:002008-03-30T04:25:00.000+02:00My boys (17, 15) are at a concert together tonight.

They will!<BR/><BR/>Kristen and Courtney used to sleep in the same room, sometimes the same bed, even though they had their own rooms, and even when they were teenagers.<BR/><BR/>They went to college in different cities (*tear*), but now that Kristen has graduated and Courtney is about to, Courtney is talking about moving to San Jose to be with her sister. They are both applying to grad schools in the same city. Although I wish they were both here, the Next Best Thing would be for them to live near each other for The Rest Of Their Lives. I imagine them babysitting each other's kids, the cousins growing up together, and once they are settled wherever they settle, me moving there so I can be a proper nuisance, er, I mean grandma.<BR/><BR/>Your boys will be best buddies always. My husband and his brothers grew up in LA, but bonded during the times they lived in England and France (every third year; their dad was/is a medieval history professor). Tom's brothers are his best friends.Cherihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17088657210215863433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215073200757285145.post-23424965738984928912008-03-29T23:31:00.000+01:002008-03-29T23:31:00.000+01:00I love the idea of the two of them having sleepovers together!
