In talking with 4 year-old DJ and 2 1/2 Brianna, they would often say: Mr. Tony, are you my friend? They would ask not once, but several times; both together, and sometimes individually.
The truth is that they knew I was not only was their friend, but that I was someone that cared about them and their family as a whole. While they did not say it; they were really asking me if I cared for them, if I loved them; with friendship being their portal as children to inquire about the nature of caring for one another. Am I my brother and sister's keeper?
Are you my friend?
