Last ...Ah, sibling rivalry, a blessing and a curse. Last summer, I bought identical workbooks for my boys to do over the summer. It was a little advanced for the youngest and probably not enough advanced in some areas for the oldest, but this way I could work with them both at the same time. We lasted only a few weeks because if the youngest finished a page first, his brother would get mad and quit. If the oldest finished first, the youngest would go cry in another room. Naturally, they couldn't just sit there and say "I finished the page." No, they had to gloat that they beat the other one, which made it worse. *sigh* I couldn't take it anymore. Screw being a bit ahead of the curve once school started (oldest is in kindergarten, round two); I needed my sanity more than my kid needed to know his basics! LOL<br /><br />Anyway, good job Sabrina, good job Max, great that Max is being competitive (although, yes, I get the annoyance of it), and love the last bit on the chores. Would you believe my kids actually fight over who gets to sweep or vacuum first or who gets to help with the dishes? Of course, they are four and six; they don't know better yet. :PStacey Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14352989875183758588noreply@blogger.com
