My girls

This morning I get up and get the girls fed and dressed, Chase is still asleep of course since there is no school.  As I am getting myself ready they are playing in my bathroom, you know, because God forbid they are a foot away from me!  But they are being good.  In fact Sidney has found her tinkerbell hairbrush and is standing behind Livi brushing her hair.  While she is beautifying Liv she keeps saying, "brush Wivs hair" and she keeps talking to Livi in what only sounds to me like she is asking her questions but I can't make out any of it.  But Liv can!  They are having their own little conversation and have floated off into their own little world.  This is great!!!!
Then they move into my bedroom where they are still conversing in their own little way and I hear Liv talking to Sidney and she is using words like "baby, sweety, honey" to her little sister.  I am finding this so sweet that I almost tear up!  Then.........
I hear "Hey, give me that, its mine!!!"  Then I hear the slap, the cry, and now the screaming!  Sidney has found a plastic horse and Liv is not about to let her keep it!  So the brawl is on...they are both screaminng and crying and not one of them is about to let this thing go and not either of them has the upper hand on the other.  They are in a dead lock struggle and now they are on the floor!!  So I had to watch just for a second to see how this was going to unfold.  I tell you what...they struggled over this thing for a couple of minutes, not one letting go and in the end...  No one wanted the damn thing anyway!  They just gave up, must have decided it wasn't worth it, you know with the 30 other plastic horses around the house to struggle any longer would just be a waste of time apparently! 
So I this is the thought that I am left with....."if this is how it is at 2 and 3, what is it going to be like at 12 and 13???"  So, I guess I'll just buy a couple of those inflatable boxing gloves and let them have at it!  What do you think!?!
