Piper, however, isn't quite sure what to think of Micah just yet. One minute she is loving him and giving him kisses, the next minute she's attempting to kick him in the head. What's even worse and quite unexpected is that Piper doesn't want much of anything to do with me. I think she feels betrayed and confused because I left her for two days and came home with a baby. It makes me terribly sad to see the sadness and frustration on her face. The two of us used to be joined at the hip and now everything has changed. I am trying my best to let go of the guilt. I truly believe that a sibling is the best gift I can give to Piper. Eventually, I think she will understand that. At this point, I can only hope and pray that we will all adjust sooner rather than later. In the meantime, please send a prayer our way!

I know it's hard Jamie, but it's also perfectly normal. I don't recall Rachel ever trying to hurt her little sister, but she was extrememly jealous and I have had several friends over the years who had problems with older siblings who tried to hurt the baby. Kinda scary, you have to watch her closely. But she will get over it, I promise. Just try to include her in as much as you can. This too shall pass! :) Baby Michah is a doll! And so is Piper!
It will be hard for a bit but in the long run it will all be worth it. Piper and Micah will be the best of friends. Good luck my dear and I will be sending you some prayers. Love you lots
