We were sitting around sharing stories about what our older siblings used to do to torture us or what we used to do to torture our younger brothers and sisters. One of my sisters tricked me into thinking hershey's baking powder is just like pulvarized chocolate. I took a big spoonful and started choking. Another girl's brother felt he was going to throw up; he took his sister's only teddy-bear (which their grandmother had given her) and threw up on it. It had to be thrown out. Another girl and her brothers used to play "Sniper"...a game they invented where the oldest one would crawl on top of the roof with his bebe gun while they ran around the house and he tried to shoot them. Turns out my sibs were quite tame (thanks guys!).
It's not all about sibling games. Other stories are really heart-warming...
For instance, when my sitemate and I came home, she went to her house and found that on Friday night it had flooded a good two feet inside her house! Papers and books were ruined. The new kindle wouldn't turn on. Mud was on her dishes, shoes, clothes, floor, etc. Five neighborhood girls (ages 12-14) appeared and helped her out. They washed dishes, swept and mopped the floor, gathered ruined papers in bags. In a matter of an hour it was all cleaned up. Nicas are really helpful when someone's in a crisis.
There are more but my internet time is running up. Will share more later. Love you guys!
Oh..and have I mentioned Dad is coming ON FRIDAY!!!!???!!!!!
