My older brother and I were two grades apart; the five stepsisters had already graduated high school when Dad re-married (four years after I graduated high school).
One new character of the gentler sex and three more offstage; could there be a fix-up in the offing, courtesy of Andre, or am I being the hopeless romantic?
Older sister, older brother in right in front of me, 2 sisters behind me. Parochial school. The nuns forget NOTHING. There were no firewalls….just a raging inferno.
Dierdre is probably the fourth-grader (nine years old), since Petey and Andre are in third grade and eight years old, though I suppose she might be the sixth-grade sister (presumptive age, eleven). I am pretty sure she is not the eighth-grader.
This does help to explain Andre’s propensity to be LOUD, being surrounded by a quartet of sisters….

Petey muses: " 4 sisters? What a nightmare! Hey! Maybe Andre has joined Ernesto from my imagination!"

My sisters were fortunate to never face a teacher that had ME in class.

My sister is a dingbat. Her husband is a cop. Family gatherings are surreal.

“I’ve got a sister in first, fourth, sixth, and eighth grades.”
“Wow. How does she attend four grades at once?”
