"but he's my little brother..."

...and i love him."  this is what madelyn says any time mason is disciplined.  even if she is the one crying for him to stop doing something (i.e. hitting her).  we just pick him up and take him to his bed if he is misbehaving and walk away.  when he cries about it madelyn says, "what are you doing to my little brother?!" (this is the only context she calls him her "little brother".) 

"taking him to his room until he is ready to play nicely."

"but don't do that!  he is my little brother and i love him!"

it is really cute, but i don't get it when we are trying to keep him from hitting her - at her request.  glad to know that she sticks up for him and loves him so much.  love.

That's so sweet! Lorelai looks pleased when Kinley gets disciplined.

You three never liked it when someone got in trouble either. It's so cute how she tries to protect her little brother.
