I am so happy that there are finally moments when Anna and James actually play nicely together with actual toys and a minimum of fighting. I'm not saying these moments aren't still few and far between but it is as if we can see what lies ahead - and I like it.
This morning while I was getting ready, James brought in his basket full of cars (his very favorite treasures) to the bathroom and started lining the bath tub with them. Anna liked the idea and started helping. James kept saying bil-caj, bil-caj. I think he is a little confused with the whole Swedish vs. English thing so he often says a word in both languages, just so he's covered.

When I was finished getting ready we went downstairs and of course all the cars had to come with us. This time they put them in little containers left over from Easter. James carried two and Anna carried two. It was like they knew they had to be fair about it.

Next Anna and James decided that they would stuff as many cars as they could in their pockets (they are both obsessed with pockets) Anna had really big pockets in her dress today so I think she fit about 4 cars in each one. She wouldn't let me touch them until it was time for her nap. Must have been heavy walking around with 8 cars in her dress - she sure clanked with every step!

We had a lovely time this morning. It all probably lasted about 20 minutes - and I savored every one of those minutes.
