It's sure that two boys make more trouble than one. Actually, our major task is to keep these two energized guys from fighting. You cannot imagine that almost everything can be their causes of fight: toys, books, which video to be played, or even who should be dressed first! Of course, they mostly fight for their favorite train toys. They rarely fight for snacks, probably we always have more than enough for them (unlike our age of childhood, everything is in shortage).
Regardless of their fight, they do think of each other and love each other very much. Here are few examples. Last Thursday, there is a party in Eric's classroom to celebrate two kids' birthday, and their parents brought some party stuffs printed with Dora and Boots (their interests have diverted slightly to Dora's Explorer series recently). Eric took one set, then asked his teacher if he can get another one for his brother Rick. Before his teacher agreed, he took another set and gave them to me for Rick. Yesterday, Rick brought back a bag of M&M candy from school. When we're back at home, he took out two dishes from the dish washer and shared the candies with Eric. It's so sweet to watch them sharing things!

Here are some pics from Tang Huadong's family. His son Albert was born on Aug 15, 2005. I met them last year in New Jersey during my trip to Boston and they do have a great life there.

Congratulations to Laoyazi and wish everybody has a healthy and prosperous year.
