Brother and Sister

Too often our house is filled with noise, whether it's playing, yelling, fighting, chasing, or just general din.   

These two used to be the best of friends.Then W went off to school and M learned to exercise her free will more often, and they now fight as often as they play together.  Of course I love hearing them play together.  But even then, it's usually just as loud as the fighting, and sometimes I honestly can't tell the difference with some of their games.  So when I catch them in a quiet moment like this, it warms my heart beyond words.  It reminds me they still have a special bond and I hope they always will.
