Maybe you can just praise Bean's generous spirit to the high heavens for now and tell him as soon as baby brother gets bigger, absolutely! (that fig looks divine!) I admire your pond swimming. I spent my childhood looking out for water moccasins (very poisonous!) in our farm ponds so I cannot fathom a swim in a pond. Oh my gosh. I am freaking out just THINKING about it. :) I love the idea of brothers sharing a room, but like you I wonder how it would work with a little one like Sprout.

In the morning Syl wakes up first and Jack "reads" her books. Syl is very hard to put down so she goes down first and then Jack and I read a book in my bed and he is transferred to his bed :) This would have never worked a couple years ago when bedtime was torturous, but now Jack falls asleep almost immediately after his head hit's the pillow! I always shared a room with my sisters and we loved it. As for my favorite part of the day (yesterday, I am at work today), Front door open Jack constructing an elaborate set up of matchbox cars and gardening equipment on the front porch, Syl on the front lawn singing a song to her baby. Love it and love the summer! How lovely to have a swimming hole so close to you! Jack and Syl are 3 1/2 years apart and they share a room, they have to (!), but they love it.

After three nights he decided his brother was too loud. We closed the wall and will try again later. I can see them having a great deal - too much - fun with it and it's actually something I hope they'll want to do at some point.
