a change of heart

To say the least, Makenna was not thrilled when we told her 6 months ago that we were having a baby boy.  She wanted a girl.  Bad.  She has wanted a baby girl for the last 3 babies.

Bitter disappointment.

I think it safe to say that approximately 2 seconds after meeting her new brother, 
she changed her mind.  She loves Isaac sweet temperament, and is just 
plain smitten.  And I think it's safe to say that Isaac loves to be
 held and loved on by Makenna.   

I hope this bond stays strong for years to come.  Makenna has taken on the role of a second mother to Isaac.  She never wants him to cry and tries to comfort him and figure out what makes him sad.  She is one amazing big sister.
