All the high-fives and heart eyes go to sweet toddlers that are willing to cuddle their newborn sibling.  Did you know that transitioning a toddler from being an only child to being a big brother or sister is tough?  I was reading a study that likened the transition to a husband bringing a mistress home to his wife.  It’s a little dramatic, but the thought of going from the only star to having to share the spotlight must feel that way to a 2 or 3 year old.

Thank goodness for easy going siblings that slide into their role as big sister or brother with the greatest of ease.
