"We adore both Aoife and Donal. They will make a fabulous pair of

Godparents and provide Blu with so much love, support and of course, a

"Arthur & I are truly blessed when it comes to the Godparents we have

for both our daughters but also the love and encouragement we receive

from all our family and friends is priceless. It really does take a

village, people."

Blu we got you!"
