Bringing home a newborn should’ve been pure joy for Miranda, but her five-year-old son Max’s behavior quickly cast a shadow.

He had eagerly prepared for baby Zoey’s arrival, even practicing with a doll. At first, Max was curious and gentle,

asking to help feed and rock her. But within days, he grew quiet and distant, especially whenever Zoey was near.

One night, Max quietly told Miranda something that stopped her cold — he believed the baby at home wasn’t his sister.

He said he saw nurses at the hospital switch babies, and the blanket Zoey came home in wasn’t the one she

had after birth. Miranda brushed it off at first as childhood imagination. But Max’s calm, steady insistence began to gnaw at her.

Miranda and her husband, David, checked the baby’s things and found Max was right — the hospital blanket had no bear

design like the one they’d picked for Zoey. Their hearts pounded as realization set in. Could this really be a mistake?

Fear replaced joy as they called the hospital and demanded answers no parent should ever have to seek.

DNA tests confirmed the worst: their baby had been accidentally switched. The families met for an emotional exchange that

ended with Miranda holding her true daughter for the first time. Tears flowed freely, but so did relief. From that

day on, Miranda never again underestimated her son’s words — he had seen the truth that no one else did.
