It was a chilly December morning, and the Johnson family was busy setting up their Christmas tree. Dad, Kendrick Sr. hung the last ornament and asked, 'Who's ready for some fun in the snow?' The kids, Kendrick Jr., Anna-Louise, and Kenton, shouted with excitement, eager to go outside. But before they could head out, Mom, Robin had some exciting news to share. She smiled and said, 'I'm pregnant, and today we'll find out if the baby is a boy or a girl. Anna-Louise guessed, 'It's a girl!' while Kendrick Jr. insisted, 'It's a boy!' Little Kenton, with wide eyes, asked, 'Where is the baby?' Mom Robin chuckled and explained, 'It's in my tummy, and it will be here in a few short months.' With that, Kendrick Sr. announced, 'Alright everyone, let's head outside for some fun!' The kids cheered and rushed to finish their snowman. Outside, Kendrick Jr. and Anna-Louise worked on the snowman, adding a scarf and a carrot nose. Meanwhile, Kenton lay on the ground, making little angels in the snow. 'Look, I'm making a baby angel,' he giggled. Robin watched her children play and said, 'Aww, Kenton, that's so sweet.' Kenton then began to build a tiny snowman and proudly declared, 'Look, I'm making a baby snowman.' After playing in the snow, the family went inside for hot chocolate and cookies. Robin pulled out a secret envelope while everyone sipped their drinks. Kendrick Sr. asked, 'Alright everyone, who wants to open the envelope?' The kids shouted, 'Me! Me! Me!' Robin smiled and said, 'Let's all open it slowly together.' As they opened the envelope, they saw a tiny card with big blue letters saying, 'It's A BOY!!!' The family hugged each other tightly, and Anna-Louise exclaimed, 'I'm having another brother!'

My brother imitates me every time: he eats everything I eat, he has his own chair and he wants to sit in the same chair I sit in, if I do ballet, he imitates ballet, if I play the piano, he wants to play the piano. I'm very upset, what can I do? I want to find a way to get along with my brother without fighting.
