Kids and Pigs... The similarities are endless.

Numbers 4 & 5 went out with me this morning to feed the pigs as usual. I'm not sure exactly what made me notice it but...BAM! In my face. Rosie and Bean reminded me of Emmy and Amy, or sisters in general.

It could have been because I put their food in two distinctly separate spots so they wouldn't fight, shove or argue over it. Or steal each others food. Or bite each other. Mostly with Rosie being the pushy, bossy, big sister snd Bean happily wandering from food pile to food pile occassionally pushing back. All of which occurred anyway on their side of the fence.

And on my side of the fence, Emmy is yelling at the piggles, telling them what to do or not do, pushing at the fence, pointing that little finger, while Amy is just happy-go-lucky, smiling, watching and staying out of range of Emmy. See where this is going?

But once the food is gone, nothing to fight over, Ro and Bean are buddies again, chilling in the yard. Getting their naps on. And Emmy and Amy are buddies again, heading to school together where Emmy tells everyone about her Little Sister and hugs her and loves her.

Peace out and love your sister...until the next shoving match. ;)
