Best Friends....

have you seen my couch cushins?
a present for baby bear (this project took the girls over 45 minutes all orchestrated by big sis....
princesses for an hour (a daily gig)
a princess tea party (picture complimentary of the waitress)

These days Lauren and Shannon are two peas in a pod. From morning to goodnight kisses the girls are side kicks. When one is napping or away, they miss each other to pieces. As long as little sis follows big sis's lead..there are no ruffled feathers....but occasionally little sis has her mind made up and Lauren is learning to adjust to an opinion other than her own. As for me, I am learning to let the girls work out their squabbles (within reason) and save my assistance for conflict resolution (yes! a new title to add to my dusty resume..."hostile conflict resolution").

I wonder what life will be like when Lauren starts preschool this fall...perhaps Miss Shannon will learn what she likes and not just what sissy tells her she likes :) I thank God for this special time of sisterly love and pray they will always keep eachother close at heart.
