Jag and Olive Lightfoot Welcome Twins!

Wow! Today was the big day for Jag and Olive! At 12:13 and 12:22 in the wee hours of April 6th, a girl and a boy were born!

The baby girl, who looks just like her mommy, was named Aura Leyara Lightfoot. She has beautiful black hair and lovely round eyes. Her middle name is that of Olive's mother who passed on before they made the journey from Rakia to Isle Del Akai.

The baby boy came just 9 minutes later, looking also like his mommy but a little more like his daddy. He was named Orion Blackbear-Kaio Lightfoot. His middle name comes from Jag's diving partner and dear friend, Blackbear Kye Moonset, who passed away last year from the illness he battled so hard to overcome.

They arrive healthy and were both very tall, a sure sign that they inherited mostly Rakian blood. Olive is completely Rakian and Jag is about 50%. They will remain at the hospital until later, after they all get some much needed sleep. Olive's father, Emerald, has flown down to be with his daughter and new grandbabies. Jag's family is on their way by train and should arrive very soon.

The couple plans to finish the semester out and then return to the Lost Islands. Jag is transferring to Kesly Coastal University where he will continue his degree in Vocal Performance and Music Education. They are very excited to start their own journey as parents.

Congratulations!
