When the new baby arrived, the house filled with tiny socks, tiny yawns, and many new sounds.
Sometimes the older child felt proud. Sometimes they wished everything were the way it was before. Both feelings were welcome.
One quiet evening, the family made a special place beside the bed for an old favorite story. The baby could wait while the older child had this familiar time.
The house had not divided its love. Somehow it had made more room. Wrapped in the same goodnight hug as always, the child rested. Goodnight.
