BABY
When my wife Diane came home from the hospital with our second baby, she hired Myrna, a live-in-nurse, to come along and help out for the first few weeks.
Having read up on sibling rivalry, my wife watched our two year old daughter Chelsey for signs of jealousy or insecurity.
Buy Chelsey adored her little brother from
the start. She loved to help Myrna feed and bathe the baby. She even offered to share her toys.
Several weeks passed and the mother of my two children, convinced that Chelsey was suffering no ill effects. decided she could manage without a nurse.
As she watched Myrna walk out to her car that last day, she heard an unmistakable cry of distress.
"Myrna!" yelled Chelsey, running after her. "You forgot your baby!"
