Middle Child Syndrome

My darling son has middle child syndrome. I know that it must be difficult being both a younger and an older brother. Too young to do what his sister can, too old to get away with what his brother does. He is stuck in an unfair warp where the middle child gets blamed for everything.
Big sis doesn't want him in her stuff or playing with her, and little brother refuses to leave him alone.

My child, my precious, precious child, how can I let you know that I love you for YOU? You make my heart smile, you amaze me with your kindness and compassion. You have such a gentle way about you. You are so sensitive to other's feelings. And, you are MINE. I have yet to figure out what I could've done so wonderful that God chose ME to be your mother. Oh, my child, I know that it's hard growing up and there are so many more challenges you will face. I will always be here to hold your hand and to pray you through.
Hold on to Jesus, my darling middle child. Don't let your birthplace discourage you from becoming what you were created to be. You are so special and wonderful. I love you, son....
