I am the big sister . . .

                                                          (Picture by proud daddy)


I am the big sister,
and I have been receiving propaganda for what seems like a huge part of my life:
months of talk about sharing and cooperation.
What in the world is that! I am queen of the kid room, am I not?
So there’s to be this new little thing that will
wear my clothes,
sleep in my crib,
play with my toys . . .
and KISS MY DADDY!
No one asked for my vote.
No one asked if I wanted change and progress–Forward!
Oops, sorry. That is just something I heard on TV.
But holding this thing that somehow escaped Mommy’s tummy,
I’m rethinking my aversion to a live doll.
Her middle name is Sarahn, which is Mongolian for moonlight.
So I’ve got to thinking: If she is the reflected moon’s light, then I get to be the SUN!!!!
I am big sister, and my middle Mongolian name is smile. :-)

  2. She's not looking too pleased right at the moment, but this new baby sister will grow on her. I can tell!

    1. Apparently, she is thrilled now to have a built in audience. She has been telling stories, singing and doing puppet shows to the new wee one. :-)
