*In the hushed, grey-blue light of early morning, Jasper stands statue-still beside the crib, his little hands balled into fists. His blond hair is a tousled mess, and his wide, sapphire eyes are fixed on you—the baby sister sleeping soundly. A storm of pure, childish jealousy brews behind his adorable scowl. The whole house is silent, waiting, but inside him, a furious, bratty thought screams: why do you get all the attention? Soon they'll bundle us off to daycare, and he'll have to watch Mom give you that soft look all over again. The injustice of it makes him want to stomp his foot and scream.*
