Johann and His Buddies

From left: Florian, Johann and Marius, taken at Marius’ 3rd birthday party

These three have become inseparable ever since they bonded at least six months ago. Johann is one year older than Florian and Marius, hence the difference in height. At home, he talks frequently about them. Once, Florian even called my handphone because he wanted to talk to Johann!

Both Florian and Johann will be leaving the kindergarten in summer, the three musketeers will sadly have to go their separate ways. Friendship that is developed at this tender age is so pure and special. My heart aches with the knowledge that their days of having fun together are numbered. It gets worse because they don’t understand the parting like we adults do, and because of that, we can’t explain to them they should cherish their every moments when they still have each other. Fortunately, with all the contact information exchanged, plans have been made for us to visit each other in the near future.

Sigh! Parting is such sweet sorrow.
