My son is 9 going on 40.Anyway,his little sister is having a real problem with him leaving of a morning for school.She wants to go to.She will grab her little nikey's and say "go bye"?Heads for the door.I feel so sorry for her.When he gets home from school,homework and closes his door.She goes to the door and starts beating it down.She wants him so bad.He usually plays with her for a few mins but today he was all excited to go to his friends house.She is devastated.I was to seeing her want him so bad.Daddy is gone til late and he takes her mind off Chandler most of the time.Oh i hate that i had them so far apart,but that's what deployment to Iraq for 18 mths does for timeing.I just don't know what to do?Anything?I wonder if it will go away a bit at a time as she gets older?Do any of you have kids far apart?
