The Best of All Worlds

G is jealous of just about everything BB has/gets. One afternoon BB was further expounding on all the privileges she enjoys while "living in Alaska (with her other family)": swimming alone, swimming with dolphins, on and on.
G: My [other] family in Florida has a pool.
Me (incredulous): You have a family in Florida?
G (in confidential whisper): It's just pretend.
Unfortunately, G's enviousness is not imaginary. We recently upgraded G and BB to a bunk bed.


See how helpful they are.

And of course, how cool is it to have the top bunk?! BB had some trouble getting up the ladder, so we thought it best that G should get the top, which didn't sit well with BB. Until...

the bottom became this awesome "house" with a "window".


Which didn't sit well with G, because as she put it, "I've got only one nice thing, while BB has two." (Look out for this one, she's keeping count.) So what to do? Drew suggested we might get some pictures to hang up there, dress it up with a few pretty pillows.
