"It just means a lot to me that we do things together," said Annalise Kamps.

Her sister Lucy Kamps said, "Making Brenna laugh is really fun. It makes your day brighter and like, yay!"

Annalise, Brenna, and Lucy were born early. "They were born at 25 weeks gestation. They were due on December 15th, but were born on September 1st. I was at work and my water broke, and they were here 12 hours later," said Mom Angie Kamps.

The triplets weighed a pound and a half at birth and spent months in the Mercy Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

"She has cerebral palsy, epilepsy, hydrocephalus, which means she has fluid on the brain."
