Siblings

often disagree and fight for various reasons. Today's, though, was the most bizarre I've yet come across: Naomi threw herself on the floor in the hallway, weeping copiously, because Hannah was leading the *pretend* cow into the room and she wanted to. There was absolutely no substance whatsoever to the cow -- no lead rope, no cow, nothing -- and yet when Hannah generously offered to let Naomi lead the cow in (transferring the pretend lead into Naomi's hand), Naomi stopped crying, said, "Thank you, Hannah," and led the fake cow in.
