Annie would ask Lucia daily if she wanted to hold Emilio. Her reply thus far had been either, "No" or "No way!" But the other day she replied with a "Yes." Much to Annie's shock, Lucia not only said yes, but she meant yes.
She climbed up on the couch and out stretched her arms for her brother.
Here's Lucia wanting & willingly holding Emilio.
She even got fancy & added a few pats to his tummy.
And she finished it off with a kiss!
Later that same day she wanted to hold him again. This time not on the couch, but on her Brobee chair. A little bit more of a challenge since she didn't have the support of the couch & pillow helping her. But as you can see she did a great job of actually holding him. Emilio was a real trooper!
Lucia is being a wonderful big sister & really taking "ownership" of her little brother.
