Clair really looks up to her sister and values spending time with her. Clair loves when Ellie lets her into her bedroom to play with either Ellie or Ellie's toys. Either mean it's a good day. Most of the time it's very joyous for them both, but every once in a while Clair tells me something Ellie has done that she didn't like. Ellie claims she wants to do it. I try to explain to Ellie Clair isn't her baby doll but a real person and she needs to respect her opinion.
A good example after half an hour of fun and games yesterday Clair comes into me to say that she couldn't get out of Ellie's room. Ellie was tickling her tummy with her hair and she didn't like it. Those silly girls.
Today, I find Clair sitting on the bathroom counter while Ellie is doing her hair. Clair wants her hair done but has decided she's done in this moment. They are a funny pair and I expect this is what sisters do. I hope that this bond continues to build even through the teen years when their age gap will feel so big to both of them, probably more Ellie.
Always be there for each other girls!
