brothers

they might as well be.

definitely two peas in a pod.

they don't ever seem to tire of each other.

unlike the 7 year olds, i have never heard them fight.

7 days apart in age.

friends for almost all of their 10 years.

actually, if they were brothers, they would probably fight all the time,

push each other's buttons unmercifully,

and wait with baited breath to tattle.

brothers from another mother...

much better.
