Sophia met her little brother in mid-afternoon on Thursday March 15. She ran to mom's bedside and in mid-hug saw her little brother sleeping beside Cecilia and uttered in a kind of combined sense of awe, surprise and wonder "bebis". It was a bit of a cautious approach at first and she gently reached out and touched him saying softly "klappa" (to stroke or pet). It wasn't long before she was eager to hold him and on her face was what I can only seem to described as pride and fascination. Here she was holding her little brother. The concept of birth, brothers and babies are slightly too big for her to fully grasp with her mere 2 years of gathered wisdom, but somewhere inside her head the wheels were spinning and we like to think that she kind of gets it. Sophia is a big sister and a good one, so far, at that.
