    Toddler wearing a wolf mask holding a baby on a colorful pillow, capturing a funny moment of sibling rivalry.

    This is how my 2.5 year old niece insists on holding her new baby brother. We worried that she might be jealous and have a tough time with the new baby but she has been nothing but THRILLED to have him around (this is subject to change, of course...)
