Sibling Bond

Raising kids is no easy task. One of the most challenging I think would be managing the bond and relationship between the sibling. Sibling bond is a complex and intricate relationship that can be influenced by parental treatment, personality, order of birth and the involvement of third parties. Sibling can be best of friends but at times at each other's throat.

Clearly, what we observed - Nathan & Gracie are best of friends and the younger one admires her senior without reservation. In return, the big brother gleefully takes up his big brother's role responsibly.
Doing family biking with these two little fellows was fun and at time a bit nerve wracking. After cycling with Gracie, I was really impressed by her skill in handling her little bike. I did have cold sweat watching her as I rode from behind. In the end, I have to shout "Hurray" for her ability to maneuver confidently around bends and corners.
For the big brother, his skill is almost impeccable!
