Brotherly Love

Life has been getting a little more violent every day around our home. Jackson has had a light bulb moment of realization: if he doesn't like something Bentley does, he has the power to TAKE HIM OUT!

I'm afraid our Jake might be turning into a bit of bully. What's more - the kind of bully who not only pushes and tackles, but bites. Ouch!

The scene: a favorite toy, with fresh new batteries for toddler playing pleasure. Jackson wishes to monopolize the toy and Bentley wants to share with Jake. Note that word - he just wants to share, he's not trying to take the toy for his own. Viva wisely decided to stay far far out of the path of the violence occurring.

Jake says: "I see you looking at this toy I'm playing with. Back off!!"


"I warned you - stay away or I'll make you!"



After laughing a little too long and watching Jake repeatedly tackle his older brother we moved on to helping poor Bentley. Solution? A bigger toy, of course!
