Benvenuta Virginia !
21 Marzo 2012
21 Marzo: la Versilia sorride baciata da un bel sole di primavera.
È proprio in questo giorno che la piccola Virginia decide di venire al mondo e scaldare il cuore di mamma Veronica e babbo Andrea. Anche i fratelli, Amos e Matteo sono felicissimi e gioiosamente sbigottiti di fronte al miracolo della vita, che ancora una volta si compie e, questa volta, lo fa proprio in mezzo a loro.
A pochi giorni dalla sua nascita, Virginia è già una piccola Principessa, amata e coccolata da tutti.
Benvenuta Virginia; sia la tua vita una meravigliosa primavera, come quella che hai portato nel cuore di tutti coloro che ti vogliono bene. 
Andrea Bocelli

21st March: Versilia smiles, kissed by a beautiful spring sun.
This is the day that little Virginia has decided to come into the world and warm the hearts of mummy Veronica and daddy Andrea. Her brothers, Amos and Matteo are also very happy and joyfully astonished at the sight of this miracle of life, that once again occurs and, this time, occurs among them all.
Just a few days from her birth, Virginia is already a little Princess, loved and pampered by all.
Welcome Virginia: may your life be a wonderful spring, just like the one that you have brought to the hearts of all of those who love you.
Andrea Bocelli
