Good Things Come in Fives...

A while back I ended up being a proud sponsor of the Wilkinson Quintuplets. Jason's Aunt Gloria ordered 5 layettes from me and she has the singular distinction of being my 500th customer. Yeah, the irony is not lost on me either...some things are meant to be. So Gloria was given her entire order for free since she was my 500th customer. She ordered the layettes in a size medium, 3-4 pounds. It soon became apparent that the babies were going to surpass the 4 pound mark so I sent a second set along as well; a size bigger.

As God would have it these babies hold the record for being the largest quints ever born. They were from 3.5 pounds to 5 pounds with a total birth weight of 22.5 pounds! Click here to read all about the Wilkinson Quints amazing story. And it seems that these little bundles have been a blessing to everyone who comes in contact with them. They were definitely a blessing to us! The week they were born we had a surge in orders. I didn't really know why at the time. But after some searching on my trusty Google Analytics I discovered that we had over 500 referrals to our website from Rachelle & Jason's blogs alone. It continued to be one of my top 5 referral sites for the next month. I am so grateful to Gloria for finding me. I am very grateful to Rachelle and Jason for letting me be a sponsor of these 5 miracle babies. The only thing I asked Rachelle to do was to send me a picture of the babies in their Preemie Tees so I could see them in their clothes. She has graciously allowed me to use the picture on my website. So here it is...



The Wilkinson Quintuplets in their Preemie Tees! They are so precious! The best things do come in fives~
