I barely tolerated her growing up and still have such a problem understanding her. It doesn't help that I've always been the consumate mother and STILL try to boss her around. Oi. We'll get there someday, but it does make me think twice before giving my little one a sib.Jessienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-472198842835957487.post-58340029516428445612012-04-21T22:25:02.627-04:002012-04-21T22:25:02.627-04:00There are five of us--the three oldest and then Pa...There are five of us--the three oldest and then Patrick and I years later. We played together as little kids, then disliked each other (just as in your description, and worse) until all of us were adults. Now, we are all each other's biggest fans and are all on the same cool team. I'm so lucky!<br /><br />My two youngest have always been very close but my older daughter, for unknown reasons, has separated herself and only tolerates them, which hurts this mother's heart. Not as bad as some families and things could change, but still. The phrase "'til death do us part" is more suited for siblings, don't you think? <br /><br />Don't give up--yours are still pretty young.Jenny Hart Borenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06587246633354905840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-472198842835957487.post-27957963969070065442012-04-21T19:24:05.621-04:002012-04-21T19:24:05.621-04:00Ok fine.
