Sisters!

Laura is the best big sister, EVER! We are regularly astonished at how wonderful she is. There seems to be no adaptation to her new role as big sister -- no jealousy, fits, or frustrations. She genuinely loves her sister and is excited to have her here. Laura is gentle, patient and affectionate with Sara. Yes, we recognize that we are that lucky to have such an amazing girl as the oldest child in our family.


It is so fun to watch these sisters already starting to love spending time and playing together. Sara turns towards Laura's voice more than any other voice. She almost rolled over the other day in the attempt to get closer to Laura (the slant on the couch helped the endeavor). I can't wait to see how much the play as they get older.


These girls are so lucky to have a sister so close in age to them. This is a rare thing in our family and I think it will be a big blessing in both their lives. I know my sister is a blessing in mine and we are nearly 2 decades apart in age. These are some lucky girls and we love them!
