One of the most difficult things to get self-centred little toddlers to do is to share. It is even more difficult when both of them are the same age, live in the same house and have clashing personalities. One would think that sharing would be second nature to them because they shared a womb right from the beginning.
But no.
So, it filled me with great glee this morning when Jordan proferred Evan his blanket (by the way) and said "share share". So she pretended to be him and sucked a corner of his blanket (he is the blankie-thumbsucker while she is the pacifier chomper) while holding out the other corner for him.
For about 5 minutes, they resembled Siamese twins attached by blanket walking round the house in tandem with separate corners of the blanket stuffed into their mouths. And when the connection was broken, Jordan who is always the more domineering, proffers once again a corner for her getting slightly distraught brother.
It is hilarious and it certainly made my day. Hopefully when No. 3 comes along, they'll happily share their things with him/ her.
