And Then There Came Three

(I will enter a new picture here, sadly I do not have one at the moment)

Well, by the time I was about 9 months old, we had moved out of Sally's home, moved out of the little apartment that we moved in in Orem (we were in the basement apartment home of my mom's husband's older sister's home) When my mom had found she was pregnant with her third child. 
 What my mom did not realize then, and sometimes now, is the third child she would have was not only the spawn of the Devils Daughter but also a Sociopath. (That is under exaggeration)
  What would her pseudo name be? Let me think... Chimera
 That took about ten seconds :)
 Chimera was a big brown eyed baby and my mom was smitten with her from the day she was born. 
My mom and her dad gave her everything. She cried a lot. I remember my mom painting her crib when she was born or just before. I could not figure out why she wanted it white when it was yellow. I recall walking by it one time when my mom was putting lambs on it... You know those 1970's decorative decals that you have have to use water and sort of decoupage it, I remember my mom doing that to this Crib. At the time I did not know what they were. They were cute lambs but I remember they were lambs because I was a lamb for Halloween and thinking... I am the animal on Chimera's crib. 
   I was about 13 months when my mom said she started potty training me because I was ready. I was saying full sentences by the time I was 14 months old and I was  about 16 months old when I ran to the toilet and sat down, but had waited to do pee, so I missed the toilet and peed all over the floor right near the toilet. I sat down anyway thinking maybe I had time to get some more pee in the toilet. Mom came in. "Leena? What happened?" without skipping a breath, I said, "Oh, mom! A huge Monster came in here and peed all over the floor!" The story was said with so much conviction, my mom could have never made up the story herself. "A Huge monster,really?" "Oh, yes, momma. He was a big monster." Wondering how far I would take the story, momma asked me, "It is that the truth, Dee?"
and with that question, the tears and  sincere heart felt admission, "My bottom did it mommy, my bottom!"
 This is a good time to mention that my older sister D, and I were best friends and we were constantly playing, just like big sister and little sister. She was and still is the biggest influence for the best and my best friend, my best everything. I always looked up to her and loved her with all my heart. 
  One day, I do not remember this but my mom does, Danae came in to ask my mom for a match for her "fire things". "Fire things?" asked om with a little bewilderment. "Yes," said Danae in a matter of fact, nonchalantly. "Can I see your fire things?" and with that mom was taken outside with me as a 2and a half year old culprit... or partner in crime. There in the back yard on a slab of concrete was a pile of leaves, dried, sticks, twigs,and various other flammable items. Indeed they were "Fire Things" as D indicated.Mom was excellent as deterring D (at that age) for more productive uses. "Why don't you have a picnic with Dee?" the idea was a hit for me myself and my sister. Of course I had no clue that I was supposed to be given 50% of the food, and I was just excited to be with my big sister having a picnic. Even to this day, I do not care. I love being around my sister. D is still someone I hold in the highest regard.
