Jenny stared at her new baby sister. The baby was sleeping in the crib in what used to be Jenny's room. Jenny was not sure how she felt about the new baby. She knew her parents were excited. Sometimes Jenny was afraid that they would forget about her. She realized that a new baby requires a lot of attention. She was trying hard not to feel jealous and forgotten. And she had to admit that the baby was very cute. She was lying in the crib, sleeping peacefully. Her hands were balled into two little fists. Jenny decided that she would try her best to be a good big sister. She would help her parents however she could. She would change diapers. She would give the baby her bottles. She would even babysit. Jenny would be helpful instead of jealous. This would be much better for everyone.
