Tuscan Tortellini Soup

My wife makes this soup every now and then, and our entire family loves it! (As many of you probably know, this isn’t always easy when you have two finicky kids.)  Plus, given she comes from a large Italian family, I think it makes us feel more connected to her family and heritage.
