Love Hate

When most people hear about our new addition they ask "How's Jake doing?" Apparently everyone in the world but me anticipated the impact Abby's arrival would have on him. I guess I thought he was too little to be affected. And fortunately it hasn't been that bad. I would say, however, he has a love hate relationship with Abby.

He's been known to stop mid-cars or mid-trains to ask "Where's Abby?" and he will often pat her head (slap it really) and say proudly "MY sister!"

Hopefully that balances the times, like today, when he told me to put her in the garbage so he could sit in my lap.
