The arrival of the second child in the family is accompanied by a lot of emotions for all participants in the process. Of course, it’s not as exciting as bringing home the first bundle of joy, because you already have everything ready! You are not new parents anymore and you know exactly what to do after discharge from the hospital. But in such cases, you have another little soul in your family to think about. Your firstborn has already moved up a step.
He or she has become a big brother or big sister, which may or may not be a welcome development. Parents always worry about how their first child will react to the arrival of another baby. Will they be upset, sad, or even angry? And what if they are badly
will treat the younger family member? One way to help an older sibling settle into their new role is to make them feel like they are the most important part of the family. With all the new excitement and turmoil going on in the family, this will be enough for an older sibling. One smart mom – the author of the video below – knew exactly what could be happening at this moment. All the family members were at home when she handed over a newborn baby to her eldest son.
What happened next made the mom reach for the camera to capture the precious moment when the older brother started singing. And it was not just any song! The young singer chose the song “You Are So Beautiful” by Joe Cocker, written by Billy Preston and Bruce Fisher, as a serenade for his sister. Interestingly, this song is considered one of the most romantic compositions of all time.
Few people know that it was actually written as a tribute to Billy’s mother. It’s a beautiful family song inspired by the love of a son for his mother, and in this case, the love of a brother for his little sister. He holds the tiny girl close and sings the famous ballad with love and tenderness.
He touches her face, holding her hand, and strokes it, looking into her eyes with complete adoration. He’s so young! His voice is squeaky and cracked, but it doesn’t matter in this particular case. The mother is wholeheartedly in love with this moment. She specifically recorded it on video to watch it over and over again.
