LOL, so cute! So funny, too.
I have a picture of my youngest with the Easter bunny, this big, scary, six foot black rabbit,. She just got mad, put her hands on her hips, and kicked him in the shins.

Haha, ny mother always made my sister and I matching dresses for holidays. It was so funny bc I was SO chubby and she was SO slim!
Thanks Bitter Bluebird for all the chuckles here!

I was eight years younger than my sister — still am, oddly enough — and I idolized her when I was little. I would have loved matching outfits, but it was never an option, since we were so far apart in age.

I have two younger sisters and when we were 11 (me), 8, and 3, my mother dressed us all alike to go to the NY World’s Fair. I didn’t forgive my mother for months. 😀

Me too. I wonder why some adults never think of how scary things like that can be for little kids.

Oh, the sisters one cracked me up! My great grandmother was a seamstress, and when she came for the holidays, would make dresses for my sister and I. They were always lovingly and beautifully made (and our dollies were the best dressed in town because she made them outfits out of the remnants), but there were a couple I hated and ended up wearing twice as Sis was older than me, so I had her hand-me-downs.

My eldest daughter had a childhood friend in that situation. The girl had an older sister, and a mother who sewed all the time and often made them identical outfits, so the younger girl often had to wear the same outfit for two years.

I think it was the yellow frocks with mustard coloured blobs on it and detachable collars that were the final straw for me!

Yikes! Was great-grandma color blind?

Nah. It was just the pattern on the material. I’ve never liked yellow, especially now unless it’s as nature intended, but I still see the mustard coloured bias binding she stitched on the collars in my nightmares LOL

I hear you. Yellow is great for chrysanthemums, autumn leaves, crocuses, goldfinches, and parakeets. But if I wear it, I look like I’m suffering from jaundice.
