Chess lessons with Jessie

Emma was setting up for a very serious chess match with her father, when she was interrupted for a lesson by Jessie.

It is so hard to share with that little sister sometimes. Jessie didn't seem to be overly concerned with Emma's sadness. Hopefully the chess game got moved to higher ground.

Geesh, Toby. I'd think that, as someone who grew up with three younger siblings, you'd have a little more compassion. :)

I thought it was the perfect representation of controlled frustration. She was so upset, but in no way did she take out her anger with her baby sister. This was not the case with my three younger siblings!

Alan and I laughed at this one! Emma was sooo patient with Jessie, we were really impressed with that!

Now, the BIG question.....did they actually get down to a game?!
