Olivia (5) and Jerome (2) are getting along very well up until now.

Many friends of mine and my husband’s asked how that could happen.

Actually it’s so simple. When Olivia was 2, my husband and I decided to get her a sibling on her 3rd birthday. Since then, we told her almost everyday about her opportunity to get a friend, a little brother (Didn’t know why we said brother instead of sister, luckily we got a son, not a daughter, it might confuse Olivia).

So, she made friend with him even before he was conceived. I think that’s why now they get along very well with each other.
