Protective Sister

Today was beautiful, in the upper 60s and lower 70s. So we played outside. I am not sure why, but the girls like to sit right next to the gate of our next door neighbor's house and talk to the dog. Well, at one point Cailyn wasn't there and Jessica was standing looking at the dog. Just then someone drove up across the street and got out of their car. Of course, the dog starting barking, startling Jessica to tears. She just stood there crying and hollering. Cailyn went running over there and started to defend her sister by yelling and pointing at the dog, " Be nice to my sister." It was so cute. I love that she defends her sister, it shows that she really does love her(even if most of the time she is the one that we need to protect her from).
