A Little Sister's Scorn

Funny thing happened today as Hammer Wife drove the girls to school this morning. As they drove down the main drag to my older daughter M's school, the girls see out the window M's friend J, but J has actually made M upset the last couple of times they hung out together by not paying sufficient attention to her. It's been the subject of some discussion at our house and we have spent a lot of time trying to explain to M that sometimes you can't be as good of friends as you want with everyone you ever want.

Anyways, so they saw J with her mother walking on their way to school this morning, and the following ensues:

Hammer Wife: M, do you want to say hi to your friend J? I'll roll down the window for you.

M: Yeah!

[Hammer Wife rolls down window]

M: "Hi J!" at the top of her lungs

And then...

M's younger sister K, sitting next to M on the ride to school, also at the top of her lungs: J, M hates you! You weren't nice to her at your party or ever! And she hates you now and i hate you too for being mean to my sister!"

Hammer Wife tried to roll the window up as quick as she could. But I think J got the point.

You go, K!
