The Story of the Little Brother

We only had one real snow day so far, but the snow lingered on the curbs long enough for the boys to have some fun.

"Ooooh, look at this chunk of ice that I found!"

"Here, Gedalya, I give you the privilege of holding it for 3 seconds."


"Look, Mama! LOOK!!! Look, I gave Gedalya the chunk of ice! Look hard, and remember this act of kindness. (Especially when I start beating my brother up as soon as we get home...)"


"I can't believe my luck. And I didn't even have to throw a tantrum."


"OK, your three seconds are up!"


"And that, everybody, is the story of the Little Brother."
