The Babies are Coming, The Babies are Coming!

Dear Henry!

Such great news this evening.  Our friend Heather called just now.  Remember they have matched with a wonderful woman who has chosen her and Phillipe to parent the twins?  Well, the babies are being brought into this world as Mommy types this post.  A boy and a girl!



Mommy has been emotional all night... it brought up many of our moments in the hospital with J when you were born.  How much love we all have for you!  The whole experience of Daddy and I standing in the hall listening to your first cries and J inviting us in and placing you in my arms saying, "go see your mama."  The first time I was a real mama.


A couple of weeks ago we went to Heather and Phillipe's to help them get the babies' room painted.  You were a great boy and sat and bumbo and your car seat takin' a deep long nap.

And for fun here is a photo of Heather back in August showing off the ultra sounds and playing Molkky with you in her arms.  She's gonna be one cool mama!  

It will be a hard couple of days for the three of them, or I should say for the five of them, but also some of the most rich, loving, and deep moments humans could share with each other.  


Your entrance into the world I've kept off of this blog.  While I write the blog for you, others peep in and it is something Mommy only wants you to hear personally.  Baby boy, my gratitude for J choosing us as your family is enormous.  I always hope that J and her family will always know that there is not a second in our lives that the miracle of you goes unnoticed. 
Love, 
Mama


P.S. Here is the first photo of your new buddies we received at 12:01AM via Heather's cell phone. YEAH!
