With a little help from my brother

They are not twins, but sometimes I feel like they have a twin energy about them. They are so close...and unconscious of the fact that no one comes close to having the relationship with them that they have with each other.

Art class started back up a few weeks ago. Gem missed the first class because he was under the weather. So Sag had the job of bringing him up to speed on a clay project which Gem needed to complete at home so that it would be ready to be painted in class the following week.

They did this on their own after I reminded them that it needed to happen that day to allow for the project to dry. They are capable, independent, trust themselves and each other, and wonderfully cooperative. We're growing some confident learner-teachers.
