The younger mermaid is really figuring things out now and we are feeling the pressure.
A couple weeks ago she was obviously disappointed to hear that her sister had eaten the remainder of a cookie that was abandoned nearly an hour before but still considered ‘mine’.
ooie
You want your cookie?
yeah
Ohhhh, honey, Abby ate it. It’s gone.
oh
She paused to consider the eldest mermaid for a moment or two and then approached her with an uncommon determination; she grabbed for Abby’s belly and said very clearly
back!
You go Emma!! Sometimes a girl needs a cookie!
