As I watch a few of my friends getting ready to adopt their daughters, I am reminded of my feelings that I had right before we left to go get Faith. I was SO scared of what adding a younger sibling to the family was going to do to the current "baby", my Shelby baby. I just knew that she was going to be very jealous and I really thought she might regress in our attachment process that we had worked so hard at. I thought that her trust in me would waiver and that we would all have to prove to her again that we STILL loved her even though there was now a new baby in the family.
Boy, was I wrong! From the very minute that we received Faith, Shelby has done nothing but LOVE love love her baby sister. I know it sounds too good to be true, but it is the truth. Something changed in Shelby that day. Something very wonderful changed in Shelby's heart that day unexpectedly...

That is great! We totally believe that being a big sister will be a great thing for Sophie. Can't wait!
Thank you for the encouragement. Hoping our girls will be as close as our boys! MK talks about her sister in China EVERYDAY!
