I keep saying to Byron that I have to be braced to read your guys' FB updates because I keep crying when I do. Your amazing present is taking me back to a decade ago for us--Allegra wasn't quite so early, but we had our whole "she was twins, but one didn't make it" deal, and some part of that is relating to the wonder you guys are experiencing right now. Huge kudos to you for remembering the love in the midst of all of this. It just gets better and better, and soon you'll be looking at the 10-year-old Charlotte, realizing you respect her as a human being, completely outside of her relation to you, and then a whole new facet of "wonder" comes into play. It's a trip, kids.
