Subject: RE: BS: Adoption & New Mommy
Having an infant and a sibling closeish in age will be hard work but very rewarding. They should grow up to be close and good friends. Watch out for jealousy in the older child. Toddlers can get night terrors but these can be reduced and got rid of by reassurance and cuddles. We found a good nightlight was great for our toddler.

Being a parent is the best job in the world. I'm sure you will both be great parents.
