The girls tattle on each other. Don’t tell that lady that wrote the book on siblings without rivalry. They just do.
They apparently are also planning to run away and join the circus to be circus clowns.
Just now Lydia came in, and in that tattling tone of voice, said, “MOOOOOOMMMMMMMYYYYY, Meredith threw pie in my face”
and she had that pie-eating grin on her face as she said it.
So playing along, I yell, “MEREDITH, Did you throw pie in Lydia’s face? That is NOT ok!” Of course literal Meredith takes it too seriously and starts getting defensive (which for Meredith usually involves this pathetic weepy victim voice), “I didn’t throw pie in her face, and besides it wasn’t real pie, it was just pretend, and I was just trying to be funny! I didn’t mean it!”
Yeah, ok joke’s over.
Still…what game were they playing in there to begin with?
