A snapshot of siblings

On a recent trip to Dunkin Donuts, Cary took Clair's nearly whole donut when she wasn't looking.

When she screamed, "Nooo! That's MINE!" he split it and gave her back a half.

 Little sister smiled sweetly and said, "Look Mommy, Cary shared with me!"


I didn't say a word and just sipped my coffee.


Siblings have to negotiate their way through the world, with their brothers/sisters shaping the days. Who am I to stand in the way of that?

(And also, quiet trumps fair every day of the week and twice on Sunday.)

:-)

P.S. I am going to get back into regular blogging, I swear! We've been so busy! We bought a house!!!
I'll have to tell you about that in another post, when I come up for air! So busy preparing for the move, which should happen the week before Christmas. Christmas in a new house! Praise God!
