straight from heaven

on sunday morning, i experienced a little slice of heaven. i got to meet this perfect baby boy (<—) just hours after his birth. cuddling him up in the soft morning light in a hospital room with my dearest of dear friends was truly celestial.

i had been so excited to meet baby v #2, and when he went a week past his due date without making an appearance, i was so worried we’d miss each other in utah! a little pitocin got him here in time for me to welcome him to this crazy beautiful world.

abby and i brought catherine and bert breakfast just like we did when baby v #1 was born, and just like catherine and i did when abby’s baby girl was born. this has got to be my favourite tradition ever.

that hour in that hospital room felt so special and sacred – it was a quiet celebration of the magnificent miracles of birth and of sweet human connections – friendships that are sown so deep.
