Ava and Tariq Jackson may not have gotten along when they were younger – but once Tariq started going to kindergarten, they realized just how much they missed each other. Now, every day after 5-year-old Tariq gets off the school bus, 3-year-old Ava rushes across the pavement so she can jump into her brother’s arms.

Their mother Verlonda says “Every afternoon at 4:04pm when my son gets off the school bus from kindergarten, this happens,” They greet each other with hugs, kisses, and walk home arm and arm saying things like, ‘You’re my favorite person.’ ‘Thanks. You’re my favorite person, too.” As a parent that’s the best I can hope for,” she added.
