My nephew is almost five months now, and he is the cutest baby ever. What's been amazing about his arrival is that he has brought the family closer.
Not only do I have an excuse to visit my brother more because of the baby, but the rest of the family gather more frequently.
Observations about B has become ways to connect the entire family. Who he looks like (my sister-in-law's father) and behaves like (me). Why he is so chubby/large for his age. Who is the best at caring for him (my brother!).
Being around a helpless baby makes everyone more caring and feel a sense of purpose.
Having B in my life still makes me neutral about having kids. Still, I am glad my brother and sister-in-law decide to start their family. B has been a little miracle to our family.
