Sisters.

It's been fun to watch my two girls become more friends than just siblings. I definitely had my doubts as to whether or not they'd actually be able to be friends and play with one another. All it took was time and a little love. It seems like it took forever, but really it happened faster than I expected.

Z has taken the lead role being the older sister. She likes to "boss" Cici around. The cutest thing she does is tell Cici a secret and then have Cici relay that secret on to me. She'll also help pick out clothes for Cici to wear and even help her dress sometimes, though Cici is in the stage of "I do it myself" right now.

Z watches out for her sister and is genuinely concerned for her well being. It's interesting to see them play out their roles as I didn't have a sister close in age to me.

Awhile ago I caught them being cute. Z was brushing Cici's hair. Cici didn't seem to mind, but she didn't look to thrilled either. But after all she was obeying her older sister. It was pretty funny to watch.


It wasn't but a day or two later that the girls got themselves into a little mischief. I had given a haircut to Papa J the night before and apparently the scissors had gotten left out. Cici showed me the scissors and told me "sharp!" I then instructed her to put them away. Z followed her and then less than a minute later Cici ran to me saying, "haircut! haircut!" Z was quite proud of her skills and Cici was so excited to show me her new haircut.
We've since cut Cici's bangs to match. I have to admit it was really funny. And it could have been worse.
