Second in Line

Conversations about birth order bring out some interesting inherent perspectives. All of a sudden the suppressed emotions of #2s become evident and the usual response from #1s are of disregard or dismissal. Dad, mom and Grandma have a more difficult time understanding the #2 position while Grandpa and Jordan emotionally comprehend as we gaze upon the next generation #2. Emerson Daniel entered the world with a calm expectation on July 22nd. Jordan has established a deep connection with Emerson stating that Wada #2s must unite. As a grandparent, we are committed to not favoring one grandchild over another (ok, don't quote me if we ever blessed with a grand daughter, Cam and Emerson are both boys in the male dominant Wada lineage).
