BIG sister little sister

As you can imagine the twins think their Big sister is the coolest thing since the Dora saves the crystal kingdom movie.This day their helping me make muffins. Sydney was SUPER excited to help stir and pour into the paper cups.
For the most part Kelsey does a really great job playing with them and including them in what she's doing..because they ALWAYS wanna be right beside her!
Kelsey is 7 years older then they are, my sister who is 3 years older than me didn't want anything to do with me. Of course it may change when Kelsey gets older..but I hope not.
Much to Kelsey's dismay whenever she's trying to practice piano the girls also want to join her. She's a very good sport about it and usually likes to have them with her. Its very sweet!!
Did I mention Kelsey fought me on taking piano lessons for years, until I decided to be a mean mom and make her take it anyway.
NOW she LOVES it, plays ALL the time and is doing REALLY great! One word...VALIDATION.
I'm super grateful for a patient and kind big sister who loves to be around her little sisters as much as they like to be around her!

What a sweet post! Kelsey is such a great big sister and helper for you. I hope it doesn't change when she gets older either! I'm so glad she loves playing the piano now, that's awesome!
