We began the year with new beds, and sometimes you slept.
Mostly, though, you refused to sleep, fought for an hour, and emerged from nap time looking like thugs.
But there were glimmers of togetherness.
Like when you were getting things
or sharing food.
But often you fought--even in the rain over a pink ball.
But you are amazingly together when breaking the rules...
Now that was funny.
And we imagine for all the fighting, you'll emerge great friends.
At least that is our hope for you.
And sometimes we think it might happen.
And other times we think it already has.
And then one of you turns into a goofball.
Or just downright pushes the other one out of the way.
But in the end,
You're brothers. And we imagine whether it is fighting or scheming or cooperating or not,
All we can do is help you remember that you are very special brothers and each is the only one the other has.
