The Hanson Brothers

On Saturday my heart almost burst with pride. It was the day I had been looking forward to for so, so long. Henry and Maxwell were on the lacrosse field together; same team, same common goal. Maxwell as middie and Henry as attack. Feeding each other assists and scoring goals. High fiving and laughing and smacking each other on the butt. A couple of times they didn't need to make a call; they just caught each others eye and knew where to go and what to do.

Maxwell had 3 goals and 2 assist and Henry had 1 goal and 1 assist. The each had an assist for a goal to the other. When Maxwell assisted Henry for his goal the whole team went a little nuts. I may have too. Just maybe. After the game Maxwell told Henry how proud he was of him. How Henry's really playing up to the competition and how much more confident he seems. I'm sure neither one of them knew it, but they both were beaming with pride.

The Hanson brothers. One of my best creations.

I love their teammate's big smile in the background

Here's a good example of the size difference between Henry and his competition...

He's figuring out how to play big though...

These two. 

Friends come and go but brothers are forever.
