Lately the kids have been really loving each other. We have our fair share of bickering, but the girls get along so well, and they both adore Alden (and he of course is fascinated by them).
Whenever Adara gets some kind of treat while Emily is at school, she insists on saving some for her sister. Recently Adara had stayed for "lunch bunch" after her preschool, and as soon as Emily got in the car after school, she couldn't wait to ask Adara with genuine interest "How was lunch bunch? Tell me about it, what made it so fun?" Right now they are watching "Fantasia" (Sunday night is pizza movie night, and we watch the same two sections of Fantasia almost all the time), and whenever Adara identifies a character or god (it's based on greek mythology), Emily is saying, "Great job Adara! You got it!" They often come home from school with pictures for the other, or for Alden. Adara likes to play with Alden, reading to him or bringing him toys. Emily is always on the looking for what she calls "chokies" (anything he could fit in his mouth) and watching him near the steps.
It's such a sweet stage.
