Birthday weekend for our twins who are turning 22 .

And yesterday was my sister Mary’s birthday, she passed away in 2019;

The twins were a great surprise for us, Our daughter had a bay five years earlier who was a preemie and in NICU. She was 2 pds 11 ounces and 17 inches long.

We didn’t have twins in our family and the anticipation of two little girls was almost more than this grandma could deal with, they arrived weighing 4 pounds each,

Tiny babies always dressed in little red hearts. Valentines babies.

Now they are grown up and one is a mommy herself to an almost two year old little girl and the other one is in a serious relationship too.

Both are beautiful and we are so proud of them,. They wanted to go to red robin and have cake and ice cream.

One wanted vanilla cake with vanilla frosting and one wanted carrot cake and cream cheese frosting.

Just because they are twins they don’t always have to have the same thing. And YES they are considered identical.

So we are celebrating them this weekend,

I said my ‘thoughts’ on my sister Mary, telling her I miss her. as we move on.

Recovery is still taking place I am half way through PT and it is brutal. I pray I survive this season.
