What a beautiful read. Many happy returns to your first born, and wow, your nonni--102! What a legend! That photo of you & Cath meeting is so beautiful 💗 Btw I made the shell pasta last week for a solo-Chloe-date-night while David was away, and I fell madly in love with myself. Thank you xx

Wow this incredible!! If you find out anything about these auspicious number overlaps please report back. It can not be coincidence. (incidentally, my God daugther and darling niece was also born on Feb 28 so we're celebrating here too; I'm raising a glass to you!)
