The Vance Home Brims with Joy as Little Mirabel Counts the Days Until Her Baby Brother Arrives
Laughter and quiet anticipation fill the Vance household these days. Usha Vance, wife of U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, says the family’s excitement is growing by the hour as they prepare to welcome their fourth child—a baby boy.
At the center of that excitement is four-year-old Mirabel. Already a devoted big sister to her older brothers, Ewan and Vivek, she has embraced the idea of another sibling with pure, unfiltered joy. “She is just so excited to meet her baby brother,” Usha shared. “Every single day she comes up to me, wraps her arms around me, and says, ‘Mom, I want to play with him.’ Watching her love already growing for him is one of the sweetest things I’ve ever seen.”
Mirabel’s affection is constant and tangible. She talks about her baby brother throughout the day, offers gentle hugs, and beams at the thought of having someone new to play with. For a family that carefully guards its private milestones while navigating public life, these ordinary moments have become especially precious.
Usha and J.D. say Mirabel’s enthusiasm has deepened their own happiness. “Seeing Mirabel’s excitement and the way she already loves her soon-to-arrive brother fills our hearts with so much joy,” Usha said. “It’s these simple, loving gestures that make every challenge worthwhile.”
In a season defined by both public responsibility and personal wonder, the Vances are savoring the tender lead-up to their newest arrival. With Mirabel already leading the way in hugs and affection, the newest member of the family is certain to be welcomed with open arms, laughter, and the deep, steady love of his siblings.
