It can be very tense when new family members first meet one another, particularly if they are both so young. On this day, Rowan would get to see his infant sister, it was announced.
His parents were unsure of how he would react. Rowan is a toddler, barely bigger than his newborn sister. But he knows how much he loves her without conditions.
Before paying his mother a visit, Rowan takes the time to pick out a small bouquet of flowers for her. When he later offers it to her, she clearly adores it.
As soon as Rowan’s father enters the room, his mother quickly picks him up off the floor. He sees his sister inside a tiny glass box, a tiny sleeping figure.
He doesn’t know what to do with his sister when they put them side by side on the hospital bed. He follows his parents’ lead and touches her gently.
After a while, Rowan gets the hang of gently caressing her and making sure she has a good night’s sleep. He even helps her put her pacifier back in her mouth after it falls out.
Right now, Rowan’s parents are jubilant.
He is so happy to have a sister and can’t wait to spend more time with her.
