her
1:53
Emma loves to be front and center
1:55
there’s a lot of competitive nature
1:58
they’ll both kind of fight to see who
2:00
can go further back or who can get to
2:03
the place first very competitive pretty
2:05
much in every way you can imagine
2:07
this was our way of spreading Smiles
2:09
virtually
2:12
the transition was definitely
2:13
challenging for Ellie
2:15
there are times where you can tell she
2:17
comes up to me and wants just one-on-one
2:19
we spend quite a bit of intentional time
2:22
where they’re one-on-one with both me
2:24
and my wife
2:25
I would say it was around six months in
2:27
when they became best friends they truly
2:29
love each other they want to be with
2:31
each other they want to be next to each
2:32
other but it took a little bit of time
2:34
to get there

2:41
time

their relationship and explore the world
