William, Andrew and Gretchen


William, Andrew and Gretchen
Originally uploaded by sravacitta
We had a lovely visit from Gretchen. She was driving north and stopped in, and we're grateful for that.

William went to the doctor. The doctor asked him, "who's that lady over there?" pointing to Diana.

William said, "that's not a lady, that's my brother."

"No," the doctor said, "holding your brother?"

"Oh, that's my mommy."

Maybe he was correcting the gender of his brother, which I've been correcting. He called him "her" and "sister" a few times.

Last night, Andrew got angry at William and said to William, pointing, "go to your room!" But Diana sent him to the room when he hit William. I sent him to the room this morning for hitting his brother. Yeesh. How do we learn to handle these conflicts?
