Congratulations that you are having a girl you will have one of each now. I am so happy for you! Here is a few reasons why you are being blessed with a girl. You will be able to teach her how to become a lady and how to cook. No one understands girls like a mom. Because there are some things a dad just can’t handle.
Aww, how sweet! Congrats and you look beautiful(previous post pics). 🙂
