Being Nice!

One of Olivia's greatest challenges is ISAAC! She loves him and yet there are days when she wants HIM to run away from home! (No way is she leaving!)

Well, the other night, I did catch her being sweet to him, reading books before bed. Isaac got a poetry book for Christmas. Here she is reading about a Grandpa, but Olivia's favorite poem in the book is about having a little brother!--actually it is about getting RID OF a little brother!! :o)

Brother
I had a litte brother
And brought him to my mother
And I said I want another
Little brother for a change.
But she said don't be a bother
So I took him to my father
And I said this little bother
Of a brother's very strange.
But he said one little brother
Is exactly like another
And every little brother
Misbehaves a bit he said.
So I took the little bother
From my mother and my father
And put the little bother
Of a brother back to bed!
