To Jack and Charlie

too much blessing to believe

Hi boys,

There is far too much to say about the last few days to do right now so I will hopefully get to do more tomorrow. But I wanted to at least write a note tonight- on my 33rd birthday- from the hospital room at Mission hospital. Charlie is here with us- you are perfect. You have a similar chin and mouth to Jack, your nose is just as perfect as any nose as I have ever seen. Your eyes are so perfect but closed for most of the time right now. All the talk is actually about the fact that you have a FULL head of dark brown hair. You are just perfect and this blessing has been so surreal-

Jack- you have been a pleasure and a half to your grandparents. Pleasant and fun and easy in every way. Your dad and I shared some tears tonight for the simple fact that we miss you. Sure- there are a lot of complicated feelings going on for us right now- but really- we just miss you.

My birthday today was so unique. Definitely a birthday that I will NEVER forget. Today I signed the birth certificate form for my son Charlie- what a birthday gift!

Okay- Charlie is asleep and it is 11pm- so I have to shut down now and go to bed to soak up as many moments of sleep as we can so my body can heal and I can get ready for another amazing day tomorrow!

Truly- the two most little loved brothers in the world!
