These guys genuinely enjoy each other’s company. Theo’s natural nurturing tendencies lead him to welcome opportunities to teach his brother, and in turn, share with him. Theo loves to show Franklin the book he’s reading or the game he’s playing, and explain everything in this sweet, welcoming tone of voice. He’ll draw an eye or a plane for Franklin during drawing time when Mommy or Daddy are busy, and most of the time, if asked, will help him with what he needs if it’s in his power. Franklin sometimes gets to watch brother play the iPhone ABC game Starfall, and it is amazing to me how he totally defers to big brother, and doesn’t try to press the screen (unlike speakerphone conversations!) Here’s Theo sharing a dish of raspberry sorbet with Franklin, totally of his own accord.
