Tyler's best friend

This is Tyler with his best friend, Dougie. They are both in morning kindergarten, but different classes. I bring Dougie home from school and every day I hear them whispering in the back seat, then Tyler says "Can Dougie come in our house?" Every day. And the answer is always yes. So Dougie runs home (he lives almost next door to us) and drops off his backpack and grabs something to eat, then runs over to our place and they play all afternoon. They run around outside, they play with Hotwheels, watch Looney Tunes, make tents out of blankets, they just have a blast being little boys. Their favorite game is to dress up in Tyler's squirrel and leopard costumes and play "kitty." I don't know what the game is, but one of them is a bad kitty, that's all I know. I guess you always need a villain around. I love that he has a little buddy to play with. Tyler has really never played with other kids. He has always been content to play by himself or with his brothers. So when they first started playing he had a lot to learn, and Dougie was patient with all of Tyler's bossiness and drama. Now he does much better and they get along great. I love it.
