Zoey loves her baby brother. She doesn't hold him tons or anything but she does usually get her Aiden fix every day. She is starting to enjoy him more and more as he gets bigger and more interactive. He totally made her day last week when we greeted her at the door after school and he had a big smile for her. I didn't realize the extent of her absolute adoration for her baby brother until we went to parent/teacher conference recently. We were wrapping things up and Zoey's teacher remembered that she wanted Zoey to show us her journal. Whenever they have the opportunity they do a journal entry in class. Ever since Aiden was born every one of Zoey's entries have been about Aiden. She talks about anything new he may do or anything she finds interesting about him and usually has a drawing to go along with it. Her teacher told us it was exciting to actually see Aiden in person because she feels like she has already been getting to know him through Zoey's journal. The teacher just loves to hear about Aiden. I loved the entries too. There is something just so genuine and sweet about it. When she isn't caught up in being a little teenager Zoey really is such a great big sister.
