My good friend, Rachel and her wonderful husband, David, and beautiful boy, Liam, came to Kansas City for a long weekend. Rachel is an artist and had a show at the Blue Gallery in Kansas City's ever popular Crossroads Art District. I love her work so much. I would have one in every room if I could afford it!
One reason this visit was so special, though, is that Greta and Liam were actually born hours apart. A moment in my life that I will never forget is one were Rachel shared her joyous news of being pregnant with me and then I shared mine with her! We were due days apart and we talked every day of our pregnancy. We laid on our couches - mine in Kansas City and hers in Shreveport, LA and we ate ice cream and shared our kick stories and our back aches. She thought she was having a girl and I thought I was having a boy. We were both wrong!
Now we talk as often as is possible between toddler tantrums and naptimes..still eating ice cream and sharing back aches. I was so excited to finally hold Liam and see his big brown eyes up close. Greta and Liam played so well together. We've decided they are getting married someday.
