well, i believe we all know how this will go down. Everyone takes the younger side because well....it's more naive and innocent. & well i would pick that side too, if kids weren't getting so smart these days. trust me, my little sister [the 5] has her own aol account. She knows how to get one by herself[granted it's with a saved password] but the point is that kids are not as naive or innocent as they used to be. They know how to play the cards and they also know how to play the parents even the sisters. Its amazing actually, to watch someone grow into such a evil little person. hahaha no, i love my little sister but she does know how to do and say things, always making one of us[my other sister or i] look bad and at fault. Yes, most of the time it is our fault, but wasn't there a time when it was always the little siblings fault??? now they know how the world works and in ten years we will probably have college students who are ten. okay maybe not, but it's only the begginning.

This is a good one! The image I have is you and the 5 yr old squaring off in a boxing ring, and G throwing a pacifier...
Advice is free and you get what you pay for, so let me see here.
* Nothing lasts forever. Eventually the "cute" factor wears out, eventually you'll move past this whole "half adult, half kid" teenage thing and things will be different. As the Bard says, "this too shall pass."
* I think G really wants to run with you, hang out with her older sisters and just be a whole lot like you guys. So she's annoying, gets in the way, and rats you guys out. Sooner or later, that will change too.
* Enjoy the journey. Life's a one way road. You don't get to pass this way again, so finding the good in what you can while you're here is huge. I know, it's annoying and you got the 15 year old thing going on (thank God some things don't get repeated).
* Exist in your world. Look, don't let yourself get hung up on the whole "the baby did this or that or the other". You have a lot of your own world, where she doesn't go. As you get older, that becomes your reality more and more.
And just in case you need reminding, I know someone else who played the cute kid card when she was, oh...three, four, five... ;-)
