On this day, in this very moment I gave birth to my daughter Meadow. She is also a twin. Her brother arrived before her at 11:44 pm. Their birth times meant that although they were twins they would have separate individual birth dates.

This gift for my daughter held immense heartfelt meaning to both her and I. For me it was the moment I got to finally meet her, finally able to touch her skin and kiss her face. The moment i got to finally tell her face to face how much I loved her and loved being her mother. For my daughter this gift was special for because of its meaning but also because she has been a true lover of the sky and stars her whole life.

She's finishing high school in 2 years and is excited to pursue astronomy as her career. Every fiber of her being is connected to the stars and for that this gift could only be even more special. I gave this gift to her framed this past Christmas and couldn't wait to see her open it. When she did, we both were in tears. Thank you for such a creative and special item!
