Working at the school that my 3 older children attend is a blessing and a curse. So today I was on the hunt for a missing library book...librarian informed me my daughter was missing a book...grrr. I walked down to my Avery's room...no book...walked across the hall to her twins classroom...no book either...but it happened to be 3rd grade reading buddies in Samuel's classroom...and who is his reading buddy but big brother Jacob. When the teacher told me this I thought oh no...she mixed oil and water! Much to my pleasant surprise she said they were wonderful together...and have been ever since their classes started working together.
I walked over and sure enough Jacob is patiently playing a letter sound game...what...these are my two boys...playing...nice...together...! The teacher seemed shocked that they don't do this well together all the time...in fact she told me they even requested to be together! (Now I am basically on the floor, dying of shock.) Don't get me wrong, my boys are great but out of my 4 kids those two do not tend to play well together...bossy know-it-all older brother...really annoying younger brother. I guess we must be doing something right...they may beat the crap out of eachother at home but are angels at school...well sort of
