Lately, Travis has been on a tear. Nothing seems to make him happy for long. He'll laugh and then turn instantly mad. For no reason. We've been working on trying to get him to curb his anger and think about what upset him and what would be the right response, but it doesn't seem to last long.
We think part of it is Thomas. He knows just how to push Travis' buttons and the second our backs are turned he "attacks". Doesn't really "do" anything like pokle him or really even directly talk to Travis. He just starts saying things under his breath to undermine what Travis was saying, or (and this is bugging EVERYONE) tries to finish EVERYONE'S sentences or say the words with them. Like the "twin-speak" thing, but all.the.time.
I'm of the mind that 1st grade might be the time to separate them, but dad thinks that might still too early. But, if they keep after each other this way, it might be necessary or they won't survive to see 2nd grade! Honestly, I'm just hoping they finish Kindergarten without any major blowups in school.
