Oh, how I love it when my boys actually play together nicely. Jack wants to do everything that his big brother does, and Charlie often has a hard time sharing his toys. But yesterday, it was perfection for ten minutes as the two of them played happily with our little red barn. Charlie wanted to put every animal in the barn, and at first, Jack was just happy to watch. Of course, that did not last long, and he started pulling the animals out as quickly as Charlie put them in. I explained to Charlie that Jack just wanted to help, and that seemed to pacify him. He and Jack were able to sit side by side and play together so sweetly. I know Jack is not old enough to really play with Charlie yet, but it is moments like this that make me happy that they are close in age. I know there will be plenty of fights and trouble sharing in the years to come, but I also know that moments like this will far outweigh all the rest.
