Pretty much from the first weekend we moved to California, we have shared a friendship with Sara and Arend. How blessed we are that over 11 years later, our original foursome has doubled in size and that, with the arrival of Sara and Arend's second daughter this week, we now have identical families! This week, we got to celebrate the healthy birth of Anika with our dear friends.
We were also excited that some dinner plans we made a while ago were kept, even with Anika's arrival just five days ago! Our friends were able come over last night and introduce us to their newest member. Anika is just as sweet and fun to cuddle as all newborns are and Ella and Delia each got to take a few turns holding her.
I always enjoy watching Ella, Delia and Anja play together. I know more fun times are in store for these four girls. We may not be hiking to the top of Half Dome again any time soon with our friends, but a night of lasagna and Headbands with our daughters is just as satisfying in this blessed stage of life! :)
