Virtual Twins (Part Two)
February 17, 2011
Nina’s contribution towards the constant chaos and rivalry with her sister takes the form of relentless irritant. Not to put too fine a point on it but Nina
is a little turd.
She is about as opposite from Macy as can be.
Example;
About a month or two ago I asked the girls what they wanted to be when they grew up. Macy immediately said “I’m going to be a doctor”. Nina’s response?
Well she proclaimed with great pride, “I’m going to be a starfish”!
BTW she no longer wants to be a starfish…this week she announced she was going to be a “fried chicken”.
huh??? Anyway...
That’s Nina. She’s a grinning imp, a sprinkler of fairy dust, a busy bee who flits across the room so lightly you’re not even sure she’s touching the floor. Sounds sweet huh?
Sometimes.
Na na na boo boo, stick your head in doo doo! |
Nina has an incredible ability to discern precisely what will bother Macy the most and then zero in on that one thing until Macy has been reduced to tears.
Imagine a scene where Macy is dutifully picking up toys and cleaning her room all the while singing “clean up clean up, everybody, everyday” (dream child right?). Now pan to the corner by the toy box.
There you will find Nina.
Pulling out toys and flinging them across the room.
Soon Macy’s song turns to a high pitched screech followed by a barking command, “Nina STOP!”.
To which Nina responds with a big smile and…
**FLING**
Another toys skims just over the top of Macy’s head.
Lather, rinse, repeat about a dozen times each day.
Really it’s not about Macy. To be perfectly fair Nina enjoys torturing ALL of us in this fashion. She is very much the equal opportunity aggravator.
In her defense I honestly don’t think Nina intends to annoy anyone.
She’s just very VERY good at it.
