Jeremy seems to have taken to calling Harry "my brother" as much
as "Harry." He'll say things like "where is my brother?"
Or, "I want to play with my brother." Or, "my brother has the
firetruck." I'm almost sure that this is something he's picked up from
the teachers at school (Jeremy has been going
to Harry's school for a month now). The boys don't interact all that much
because they are in different classes, but they pass each other and play together
outside and I'm sure the teachers talk about "your brother" whenever
the chance arises. Interestingly, it is, indeed, "my brother" when
Jeremy says it instead of "mine brother," which he still uses for
most every other possessive. Maybe he hears his brother saying it that way
at school.
