BIG SISTER
"I want to hold him"

Is this my baby?




After 24 hours of wellness...it was time to meet Rhett.
Elle was thrilled to be the new big sister....she could hardly believe her luck at getting to hold her precious new brother. She thought he belonged to the baby nurse that brought him in at first. Lauren, the nurse, was so touched by the sweet reaction Elle had holding her brother---it brought tears to her eyes. When she realized that she would get to bring him home, she shared this smile of pure joy. She loved on him and kissed him sweetly on the head. She spoke to him in a tiny high pitched voice and kept telling him..."it's alright". She's going to be quite the protecter!!
