Big Sis

Sometimes the pictures are all about Vander

 but I can't forget sweet Annalee.  Having been the oldest child myself, I identify a lot with Annalee and I worry about how to help her be the best big sister she can be. 

Of course she likes her own special time with us,

 but I don't know why I worry.

 Annalee instinctively wants to take care of Vander and make him smile.

 The other morning she came bouncing into my room where I was still wallowing in my bed, refusing to face the day. 

"Vander's crying, Mommy!" she announced. 
"Thank you, I know," I moaned. 
"I will go turn on his light and make him happy," she said.

She makes ME happy too!
