Big Sister

March 26, 2009 at 8:37 pm | In Day to Day, Savannah | 2 Comments

TONIGHT BEFORE PUTTING SAVANNAH TO BED . . .

Savannah:  Mom?

Me:  Yes?

Savannah:  Can I have a big sister?

Me:  Nope, sorry.

Savannah:  Why?

Me:  Because you’re the big sister.

Savannah:  And Declan is the little brother?

Me:  Right.  You’re the first baby that Mommy and Daddy had, so you’re the oldest.

Savannah:  I am?  I’m the first?

Me:  Yes, that’s right.

Savannah:  (silence)

Me:  Okay, good night sweetie.

Savannah:  Mom?

Me:  Yes?

Savannah:  When I have a big sister, can I name her Emily?

Me:  Sure.

  1. Randy says you can have Katherine (she had a bit of an attitude problem this evening =)).

    Katherine hasn’t asked for an older sister, but she is constantly asking for a baby sister. I tell her that even IF I were to have another baby in my tummy, there are no guarantees and it COULD be another baby brother – and then that gives her second thoughts. =)

  2. Tell her she can pretend I am her big sister??
