Adelaide’s friend, Emerson, has a brand new baby sister! We were thrilled to get to meet her last weekend.
Adelaide blew me away by her interest in Harper. She didn’t mind when I was holding the baby, except that she wanted to hold the baby. And once she was holding the baby, she didn’t want to give her up! Her enthusiasm has made me so hopeful for when she has a baby sister of her very own.
Here are some adorable photos taken by Nicole (Emerson and Harper’s mom) that afternoon:

A family with four kids at our church made a big deal with each new sibling that the new baby “belonged” to the next oldest child and they got the special job of helping mommy with baby. Gave the kids a lot of ownership for the new family member and made them still feel special, even though they were no longer the baby of the family.
