Welcome Rosalie Cass Sharp

rosalie.jpgThis was a happy week for banjo pickers!

We posted on Tuesday that Aaron McDaris and his wife celebrated the birth of their daughter, Katie Leann, on Monday.

It turns out that Monday was also a special day for Graham Sharp and his wife, Seph. They welcomed their daughter, Rosalie Cass Sharp, that same day.

Graham sent us a note remarking on a very interesting convergence of events.

“Get this… Rosalie was born same minute, same day as Aaron’s little girl. Her big brother, Wade, is taking good care of her while Seph and I sleep.

Look out world!”

Congratulations to the growing Sharp family as well.
