Brother and Sister Bond



Logan and Anna get along so well. They have a very different relationship than Logan does with Brandon or Brandon does with Anna. There is 8 years between them and Logan is very good with Anna. She really looks up to him and misses him when he is gone. Logan has had a very busy summer and he has spent a lot of time at friends houses or at 2-3 hour camps here and there. It is also getting harder to get Logan off the computers, electronics or books long enough to spend time with his family. These two rarely have arguments and Logan enjoys reading books to her and playing.

Logan insists that he needs to find a woman to marry someday that will adopt a girl from China. I think that is so neat, but I also tell him that it is my hope and prayer that in the future the woman in the People's Republic Of China will not have to give up their daughter's in many of the Provinces and that the one child policy and the urge to have boys will not be so strong. He then went on to say that any country to adopt from will be a neat thing to do. I am so glad that he realizes that it does not matter how children come to families...whether by birth or adoption. Logan can still be quite the stinker around here with an attitude, but we see glimpses of a really neat young man.

Brandon and Anna are 5 years apart and play well sometimes. At other times, I hear the squealing or screeching too often. She takes his toys, destroys his toys, but they can get along pretty good at times, too. Logan has been at Zoo Crew for 2 weeks from 9-12, so the two little ones have had a lot of time playing in the sun room.
