I am a friend of Katie Gardner's and found your blog through her. My sister had twin daughters 29 years ago - and she looked as beautiful, healthy and amazingly serene as you do. All I know as an aunt is that our lives would not have been the same without them. Your world will be so rich and crazy with love that the comments from strangers (how ever well meaning) will fade away to a lost memory. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteAs the maternal grandmother and a Southern gentlewoman I am a bit overwhelmed by the "flesh" we observe here, but soooooo very excited about the impending birth of these two precious babies! Special love to YOU FOUR!
ReplyDeleteWe are excited to meet the babies, we are resting up to be extra hands and feet for the Tankersleys. The tiny Tanks are receiving love and prayers from many of our friends and family members. Opa and Oma send their love.
ReplyDeleteYou look awesome Leeana! It's like the same old you with a giant basketball of babies out in the front. Mike and I are thinking of the four of you and wishing you all well. I am sure you are excited for the BIG day! Birth is truly an amazing experience, I wish your a wonderful, safe, happy, and fast birth. We are looking forward to seeing pics of the "tiny tanks" on this site soon!
