I remember when I was pregnant with my second child, worrying about how could I love another child as much as I loved my first.
I spoke with my midwife who gave a lovely analogy. She said, if you light one candle, then take another candle and light it from the first, does it diminish the first candles flame? No, and love is like that, love is infinite.
I've used this for my own children when step-parents and half brothers/sisters appeared and they were comforted by it.
