My best
friend of life and twin, Jenn, is now mama Jenn! She delivered a beautiful,
healthy, precious, adorable little girl, Aubrey, on Saturday, and we couldn’t
be happier for them.
I woke up
at 4am Switzerland time on Sunday and layed in bed wide awake. I knew that Jenn
had gone to the hospital, so I had been thinking about her all day. When I woke
up though, I just couldn’t shake the feeling that it was THE moment. I tried to
go back to sleep but decided to write a quick email to Jenn to let her know I
was cheering her on. The subject of my email was “Push!” I woke up the next
morning and soon after received a picture of Aubrey and Jenn with the stats.
She was born at 7:04pm. I looked back to my sent folder and had sent the email
at 4:01am Switzerland time… three minutes before she was actually born. It’s a
twin thing.
Aubrey,
Auntie Dee can’t wait to meet you, even though you slept through our first
skype date. My wish for you is that you find a friendship as strong, funny
(haha, peculiar, and shoot self), reliable, adventurous, and happy as your mom
and I have.

I love this post! :) The twin thing and knowing when Jenn was actually going into labor is crazy cool!
ReplyDeleteMakes my postpartum, emotional self cry... I can only hope Aubrey ends up with a best friend as wonderful as you. :)
ReplyDeleteLove you, Dude!
