Yes, I asked Stella to chill with Phoebe as I took some photos. But the affection is all genuine.
I love the ease with which these two already interact. Stella is so fond of her little Junebug, and Phoebe is obviously quite smitten with her big sister. From the day we brought Phoebe home, there's been a special bond between the two of them. If Phoebe is distraught or fussy (which is fortunately very rare), Stella quietly and naturally moves to her side and puts a hand on her tummy or strokes her fuzzy little head. She whispers, "There you go, Phoebe. It's alright, Phoebe." And the beautiful thing is that Phoebe responds. She immediately calms down and looks for her sister. Incredible.
It sets our hearts on fire to watch this bond evolve, and we feel thrilled to have given them the gift of a sibling.
