As a mom of two sweet boys, I say congrats! :) (ps. luke & levi are only days apart)

I love how you revealed the gender, very creative. Which one do you enjoy better? Waiting for the surprise or finding out early? We've done both too:)

Praying for you often as you journey through another pregnancy and grow your family. I can only imagine how bittersweet some moments can be.

Love from KY,
Brittany
