awoke saturday morning to sobbing little boy.big blowup with his big sister.
"i don't feel like i can live at our house anymore."
of course, he called her stupid first.
& drew a picture of her as half-her, half-monster.
she called him stupid second.
& told him his was evil.
he said she messed with his stuff.
she said he threw his stuff at her.
hurt feelings spilled all over the place.
self-righteousness smeared everywhere.
& here i was wondering how to spend my saturday.
off to print "ten things i love about my sibling" lists
for them to complete at breakfast.
so they can redirect their disgust with one another
at mom. common enemy is a proven connector.
just another day, taking one for the team. ;)
