“I woke up in the middle of the night, stared at my wife and thought to myself,wow!” he tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I had justwoken up from a dream thatI walked in late at night with my suitcase in hand from some kind of trip. I saw two figures on the couch with their backs to me, watching some kind of movie. One was my wife, for sure, but the other was a lot smaller and had frizzy hair.”
“Before I knew it, I heard a voice that said, ‘Daddy come watch the movie with us.’ I woke up from that moment knowing/feeling that we were having a special girlcome into our life,” he adds. “We are blessed for Amelia Brooklyn-Rose Williams.”
