What Siblings Are For

Malan's favorite early morning activity:
 Making creatures.

Jane's favorite early morning activity:
Waiting until Malan is not looking, then trapping Malan's creatures in cages. Then waiting patiently until Malan discovers her creature has been captured yet again, after which Malan wails,"Oh. . .Jaaaaane!" in a way Jane finds most gratifying.

That is a cage, not a "no caterpillars" sign.

Oh Jane. She certainly has a thing for using creatures against her sisters.

She really knows how to mess with her sister! Funny Jane. Funny, funny, Jane. Oh. Oh. Oh. (forgive me I just slipped into Dick and Jane mode. hee hee!

I'm with Jane. I hate to see free-roaming caterpillars--especially in the house!

Oh how I wish Ben found it gratifying when Sarah does that to his pictures!
What cute girls!

Ha Ha! I think that's hilarious that she puts them in cages! Does Malan secretly love it? And yes, those are very nice drawings, Malan.

Hey, Jane is on to something. I mean, good fences make good neighbors, right?
What a brilliantly sneaky little sister. I totally could have profited from having Jane around in my day, I tell you what.
