Big Brother, Little Brother

When we first brought Baby David home, we wondered how first born son Kevin would handle losing his position as center of the universe.  (We actually had similar concerns with our cat Plato when bringing Baby Kevin home 2 and a half years ago!)  

No sibling rivalry here at all.  Perhaps because we took Kevin to the class It’s My Baby Too! at Parkview's New Life Center? More likely because whenever friends and family give David a gift, usually Kevin got one too! Kevin is proud to be a big brother and even refers to little David as "my friend."  This photo, taken the day after we brought Baby David home, already shows the strong connection between them. David is wearing the same outfit that little Kevin did as a baby. 
By the way, Plato is adjusting fine to both.
Big brother Kevin and Baby David bonded immediately
