best buddy

Today I went my son's preschool to assist with a walking field trip.  When I got there, Everett grabbed this boy by the shirt and dragged him over to me. As if showing me a new toy he said, 

"Look mom, this is my best buddy! "

The boy smiled ear to ear, proud to be meeting the family. They held hands the whole walk, and their conversation went something like this;

Everett: "Hey buddy?"

Best Buddy: "Ya buddy?"

Everett: "Is your house in the mountains?"

Best Buddy: "No! I live in Provo!"

Everett: "My house is in the mountains."

We can't all be as lucky as you Everett, sorry best buddy.
