Missin' Sis

A couple of weeks ago both of my girls got to spend the night with their nana and papa separately. Emme's night was first. Her cousin, Isabella, got to spend the night with her. We are practically with them everyday in the summer, but when she came in they hugged like they hadn't seen each other in forever (it had only been maybe a day)! They had so much fun playing together. The next night was Maddi's and cousin Alexis' night. Throughout the day, Emme became more and more quiet. I just assumed she was just wanting to go back to nana and papa's, it's just always more fun there than at home. But when we were leaving Maddi, I realized what was wrong with Emme. When we got in the car, I said "Emme are just going to miss your sister?" The flood gates were opened. Bursting into tears she said, "I have been trying to keep it in, but my throat is just hurting too bad." She went on to say that she was excited Maddi got to go and have fun but she was just going to miss her. She just needed to have a good cry then was completely fine the rest of the night. She came home and told her dad that she was sorry she had been pouting at dinner. With Emme you never know what you will get sometimes she tells you like it is and then in the next moment can be so sweet and sensitive.
