[quote=Anonymous]My DDs are just under 3 years apart and it has been clear from very early on that the younger (75th percentile) will be taller than the older (15th percentile) - and sooner rather than later. At ages 7 and 10, they weigh the same and the older has only 2 inches or so on the younger. We have said for years, you are the big sister, even though your little sister will be bigger than you, you are still the big sister. I have a younger brother, as does my mother and MIL, and all the uncles are (thankfully) taller than we are, so we have used that as a lesson. I think being both matter-of-fact about it and clear that the older one will always be the "big" is all you can do, but maybe others can think of something else. [/quote]
