For years now Jess and Jeramy have had a sibling rivalry over random trinkets from their childhood which they consider to be treasures. For example, Jess was quite jealous when he heard that Jeramy was given the old elf Christmas ornaments and the pair of chili bowls with the handles missing. Jeramy claims Jess was favored because he got the Lazy Boy and the old 1989 Buick. Jess claimed revenge by stealing the Barnum and Bailey's Circus cup. (We subsequently lost said cup and it has somehow been blamed on me. Geez Jen!) We actually got rid of the car and the chair so Jess was left with nothing. But out of the kindness of his heart and an even bigger stretch of his pride, Jeramy gave Jesse a beloved chili cup for his birthday. Only because he has the other one. He actually claims he gave up Heidi's. So when we had soup the other night for dinner Jess promptly replaced the bowl I set for him with the chili cup. Soup tastes better in the cup, just like milk tasted better in the long lost Circus cup. I think the boys are crazy. Jesse's poor mother has had to quit handing down childhood treasures because she is constantly blamed for favoritism. Thanks so much for the birthday present Jer, the soup was GREAT!
