I feel sorry and guilty for what we are about to do to Wesley. He has this little world we have created for him and that he was learned to thrive in and now we are about to make it very, very different. When this new baby arrives it is going to shake him to the core. Everything will be different. All the things he has come to count on as static and reliable are going to start to flex and flicker and might disappear all together.
He is such a creature of habit and thrives so well in his routines. I don’t know how he is going to handle all the changes. Big changes. Hopefully we can make this as smooth and easy as a terribly hard transition can be. I’ll try to make new routines and new rules he can count on. But it will be extremely hard for all of us for some time.
I’m sorry buddy. Some day (in 20 years or so) it will all be worth it. Hang in there and try to be nice to new baby.
