Kelsey Poll and Tyler West had a connection long before getting married

MICHEL MARTIN, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Michel Martin. Kelsey Poll and Tyler West had a connection long before getting married. When the couple looked through Kelsey's baby photos earlier this year, Tyler noticed someone familiar - his mother. A photo from 2001 depicts Kelsey as an infant in the care of a nurse. When the two pulled out Kelsey's birth certificate, they found all the proof they needed. Tyler's mother helped deliver her now-daughter-in-law. Some things are just meant to be. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
