Michelle and Teresa

Michelle was there when Wendy was born, and she formed a strong bond with her right there and then. Over the years, she has been a fantastic auntie to Wendy. She loves Wendy so much that she was nervous about meeting the new baby, because she couldn't imagine loving anyone else as much as she loves Wendy.

I had the same fear when I was expecting Caelyn, and I have since discovered that it is a very common fear. God does maths differently. Love is not like a pie where the more people you share it with, the smaller the portions are. No, mysteriously, its a multiplication sum. The more love you give, the more love you have to give.

I'm going to post photos of Michelle getting to know her new niece, Teresa. You can see the love and tenderness in the body language. Michelle is going to be just as good an auntie and friend to Teresa as she is to Wendy.

This was taken when Teresa was 20 days old.


This one was taken a few minutes after birth.
