Well, Mike and I knew our sleeping giant would reach his limit of provoking by his sister. It happened today. He bit the snot out of her. I’m sure she had it coming but of course he got in trouble for it. Maybe now she’ll be a little sweeter to him.

Don’t misunderstand. They love each other and have their moments when they snuggle up and hug. They even share sometimes. However, Heidi is a bit of a firebrand and likes to push his buttons. There’s a little lesson for her today, more than one. 🙂

* Pick on someone your own size.
* Do unto others as you would have them do to you.
* Don’t dish out what you can’t take.
* Recognize when “enough is enough.”
* 10 more, I am sure.

These life lessons come at a price, at any age I am realizing.
