Two peas in a pod

It's a phenomenon that won't happen often. In fact this is the first and only time it will ever happen. When Liam is exactly half the age of Lanie.

Lanie is 6 years old. 

Liam is 3 years old. 

I was sitting here watching the two of them play together, watch cartoons together and sing together. It amazes how well they get along. Of course they fight and bug each other but no matter what they always love each other. 

Lanie being the big sister always wants to keep him safe, bug him, irritate him, and boss him. The normal big sister stuff. But if anyone else is mean to him she's the first to stick up for him. 

Liam being the little brother wants to follow his sister everywhere. He wants do to what she does. Okay what she plays. He wants to take her stuff and run away laughing when she chases him. Liam stands up for himself telling her no but he also gives her almost anything she wants. He loves and admires his sister. Looks up to her. 

These two can be mean to each other one minute and sweet and living the next. Lanie being the big sister feels it's her job to teach Liam new things. She tries to teach him new words or how to play games and how to count. He's learned a lot from here. 

When it comes down to it these two would be lost without each other. 

God blessed me with two beautiful babies.
