I think we just witnessed the first of many to come- Cat Fights! Kennadi was walking around the house with Kinnli's glass Disney Princess Snow Globe. This was the one present Kinnli wanted from Santa. She's been great at keeping it out of the hands of Kennadi.... until today. Kenndi was so proud as she entered the living room with Kinnli's prized possession. I quickly told Kinnli she needed to get it from her before she dropped it. Not a wise idea- two girls fighting over a glass snow globe like their lives depended on it- on a hardwood floor. With a lot of screaming and grabbing Kinnli was able to get repossession of the globe. As Kinnli struggled to get away from Kennadi- she fell onto her knees trying to gain her freedom. Kennadi grabbed the back of Kinnli's shirt and was pulling on it as hard she could. It became a tug of war with Kinnli pulling one way and Kennadi pulling the other way- I could hear the stitches on Kinnli's shirt splitting amidst the loud, high-pitched, ear-piercing shrieks of two girls. There were arms and legs lashing and teeth about to start gnashing. I was holding Kate on the couch nearby, but didn't dare try to intervene on the cat-fight with one hand. Josh was in the kitchen. We comically locked eyes and tried not to laugh because we haven't experienced this before. In what seemed like slow motion he made his way over to them and was able to save the snow globe and separate the two angry girls. Kennadi threw herself on the floor in a tantrum- which she is just barely figuring out how to do and Kinnli continued to cry about being choked by her shirt. Josh and I tried to hide our smiles and keep from laughing out loud. I'm glad we can think it's funny now, because I know for the next 18 yrs. of our lives we are going to have many of these fights with our three girls that won't be quite so funny:) LOL
Lesson learned- girls definitely fight differently than boys!
