Expectation vs Reality {Sibling Edition}

Siblings live in perfect harmony together day and night, always putting each other first.

Not.

Siblings can be a real pain in the backside. So today I’m going to share with you the expectations and realities of life with a brother or sister.

Expectation

Brother: “Dear sister, I know how much you love Mum’s chocolate chip cookies, so I saved you the whole plate while you were away.”

Reality

Sister: Did you save any cookies for me?

Brother: *burps* No.

Expectation

Sister: *comes home from camp* I’m home!

Brother: *falls into sister’s arms* Oh Sister, how I missed you! Look! I made you a welcome home banner!

Reality:

Sister: *comes home from camp* I’m home!

Brother: Huh? Where’d you go?

Brother: *nearly ripping out his hair* *also still on first math question* You’ve been singing those songs for FIVE HOURS! It’s ALMOST DINNER!!!!

Expectation:*

*I do not share a room with my brother 😛

Sister: I’m so glad we share a room, aren’t you, Brother? We can be together all the time!

Brother: Of course, Sister! Your half if so neat and tidy.

Sister: And yours is impeccable!

Brother and sister: Aaaah…

Sister: I hate sharing a room with you! You’re a pig!

Brother: At least I shower more than you do. I shower once a month!

Brother and sister: AAAAAHHH!!!
