I just don’t get the whole sibling thing! (Siblings – May)

0
0

As an only child I find the sibling dynamic really hard to understand. My girls can be so mean to each other one minute and then best of friends the next. Yet, while it puzzles me, my husband just laughs knowingly, being one of four he knows the score when it comes to sibling dynamics.

I even remember when I was pregnant with E wondering how I would love this child as much as I loved Noo. And even how it would be possible to have a child that could be different to her. It sounds ludicrous now, but I suppose it was because I didn’t have a sibling of my own to compare it to.

They even had a row in the car the other day about the sat nav, of all things. When E heard that it was a lady’s voice she said “It’s a girl” after the direction was given. Then Noo chimed in with it. They then took it in turns to say it (not annoying at all… *cough*) until one took the other ones turn so of course a big row broke out on the back seat.

I find it tricky to know when to intervene when they argue, to figure out what’s just general sibling bickering and what will escalate into a fight. And yes, I mean a physical fight! They did that girly slap style fight the other day!
Before school on Friday Noo was so fed up of E that she even made a little fort around herself on the sofa. I don’t actually think E is that bothered about it though!

They can go from fighting to this.

I love getting candid shots of them interacting, even if it’s something as simple as E watching N play on the leappad.

 

 

and do you know what I love the most about having two (and two girls especially)?

It’s peeking in at moments like this!

Such joy.
