Love Thy Brother

Ashley has always loved William but has also been a little distant.  Lately, however, she is becoming more demonstrative with him.  I think this is because he is now walking and interacting more like a toddler and she sees him more as a companion than just a baby.

On Sunday I found Ashley and William playing "Ring Around the Rosies."  William laughed whole-heartedly as she chanted the rhyme.

Everett soon joined in and the three of them had a great time.  William was thrilled with this new game.

Of course, Everett had to get some time with William all to himself.

William didn't mind.  Those boys love wrestling with each other.  Ashley usually keeps her distance with an air of indifference.

These two take wrestling very seriously.

And Ashley takes twirling very seriously.

Ashley is not too much of a girly-girl, but she loves prancing and dancing and twirling like a little ballerina.
