Sibling Love on a Monday

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts Monday Music Moves Me

The boys

Having siblings can be lots of fun. Lots of sibling love and care. There is always someone around who can play with you and act silly with. The boys love to be together with each other and can be heard laughing in glee while playing with each other. No doubt they do have the moments of disagreement which end up in shoves and screams but most of the time it is still bearable having siblings.

Doggie boy and Tiger girl

The dynamics between boy-boy and boy-girl siblings really differ a lot. Doggie boy and Monkey boy are not so pally with their little sister. Maybe it’s the age difference and the fact that she is at the age where she is not really into sharing as yet. However they do share the same love for food.

Tiger girl relates better to Monkey boy then Doggie boy as he is more gentle and patient with her. He is also more accommodating as compared to his younger brother. She knows which brother to look for if she wants to play and looks out for both her brothers.

How is the relationship between your kids?
