Mommy: "Maryam, you know how Ian is Anna's big brother and Anna is Ian's little sister? Or how Trip and Paddy and Collin are all brothers?"
Maryam: nods
Mommy: "Well, you're going to have a little sister or brother soon. You're going to be a big sister."
Maryam: "OK."
Mommy: "Mommy is growing a baby in her tummy. (rubs belly) Mommy's belly is going to get really big as the baby grows."
Maryam: (with eyes wide) "Wow, OK." (runs after a ball)
Congratulations!

Congratulations!! Maryam will be a great big sister! It'll be fun to read about their adventures together! Maybe he or she will make an appearance on Halloween to share your birthday!

ReplyDeleteVery cute story! I think McKenzie actually gets it now, she knows the baby is in my tummy and she likes to kiss him and sing him songs. But I think she thinks he is "in" my belly button the way she looks in there!
