My cousin Amanda and I were really close growing up. There was only a 6 month age difference between us and you could guarantee when our families were together if you saw one of us, you saw both of us. 
So when she told me that she and her husband were expecting a healthy baby boy I’d be lying if I said I didn’t shed a few happy tears over the news. Perhaps even more than a few.

It was great to spend a night with Amanda, her husband, and the adorable baby Luca – getting the chance to see him before we left for Albuquerque will definitely be one of the highlights of this trip. 
I can’t wait to watch you grow little man. Xoxo.
