I may not have gone where I intended to go,
but I think I've ended up where I needed to be.

Monkey, today was the day you "changed our lives".....
Yesterday was Aunt Penny's birthday and a trip to see her was on the books.....
I took an early early early flight (you'll learn that Mimi is NOT a fan of early)
and arrived tired but happy......
But you had other plans.....
BIG PLANS.....
2 hours after arriving your mommy called to say "it's time - she's ready to take on the world".....
Only thing Monkey - your birthday wasn't scheduled until October 29, 2015.......
But there is another part to this story.....
There is the part of the story that goes:
Once upon a time Aunt Penny had a niece that was pregnant the same time as your mommy.....
Mimi and Aunt Penny couldn't believe it - "Grands" around the same time.....
And then one day we both found out that our "Grands" were going to be girls.....
We talked about the trips we would take you girls on and the clothes we would dress you in.....
We even dared to dream for a moment that you would be born on the same day.....
But as every story goes there has to be "more to the story".....
And the "more"of this story is that the mommy due dates were too far apart for that blessing to occur.....
"A's" mommy would have to be way over due and you would have to be very early.....
We didn't wish that on either of the mommies....
But then the story changed yet again.....
"A" waited for you......
And you began your life of making "wishes come true"....
Within the same 24 hour period of time you both came into our lives
and our lives will never be the same.....
I read this over and over and can't believe the joy you have brought to our lives.
