Journaling:
Megan, We’ve waited a long time to get you here. Aspen wanted a little sister and Chase wanted a little brother, but now that you’re here I think Chase is okay with having another sister. He holds you and cuddles you just like he did when Aspen was born. He won’t let anything bad happen to you. He’s your protector, just like he is for Aspen. Sure, he is going to give you grief just like a brother should, but when the chips are down, he’ll be there for you just like he has always been there for your big sister. Megan, no matter what happens, remember you are
SO LOVED.
