Sings to herself

Repeats everything you say

But most of all you both love each other. You are always wanting your sister to be with you and ask where she is if they are not with you. You both take care of each other and make sure that your sister has her cat or duck. You always make sure I give your sister whatever I give you and don't hesitate to share your candy with each other. You ask for your sister as soon as you wake up and cry if she is still sleeping. You both take turns pushing and taking stuff from one another but it is easy to see you always love each other unconditionally. There is nothing better than that!
