That's so AWESOME.

I just knew the Lord was bringing us babies at the same time. I think that being born just a couple days apart is pretty darn close.

I'm so excited for you. Can't wait for a playdate with Charlotte!!

Let me know if you need any advice. I'll be praying for you during my middle of the night feedings... because you'll be awake too. How wonderful
