Jack and Allie are so much alike that I fear the years to come...
Solitary moments like these are rare.
My younger two prefer to be together always...
whatever one does, so must the other. I must learn how to minimize the constant battles that arise from this togetherness. I do not wish to be a referee. Today I hid behind the camera lens and captured Allie's scheming to get even with Jack. After he wouldn't give her the color chalk that she wanted...
a plan of attack was calculated before my eyes.
Somehow she managed to get the yellow chalk. Here she is waiting for him to notice her feat, (and looking SO much like her cousin Mae Mae).
The grin of victory (and it's not about the chalk). All is good...
until he gets up and charges, and joyousness quickly turns into anxiety! Then the whole cycle of assault and revenge will repeat unless I can quickly come up with some smart intervention scheme of my own.
This time it ended well, with Jack letting Allie have the "ink, ink", she called it, and for a minute they were both happy.
Allie's talents go beyond brother taunting.
She might also have a future in the dramatic arts.

cute pictures. Do Sydney and Jack not fight? Kennedy and Jackson are constantly fighting over things. Lately the rule is, if they fight over something, it's Mom's. I've collected quite a few toys. I'm trying to get them to talk to each other rather than scream, yell and grab. Because usually if they talk to one another they can come to a solution.
lol that was a great post, i love how you captured everthing on the camera and the way you narrated. allie really is funny! i can totally see her resemblance to maison, both little actresses.
