The Gift Of Life
The great friend of mine who was in labor a week ago finally gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby girl last night. They are all happy and oh-so-lovely. I was able to make there just in time to witness new life come into being.
I have had the privilege of watching in awe as four (almost five!) babies have joined us on this earth, along with my own two. I figure that in this short life we have, why not see life just as frequently as we will inevitably see death? There is a purely fascinating magic that takes place when a brand new baby draws their first breath. What an incredible gift it is to be a part of such a wonderful moment!
Thank you Deidre, Kelly, Bethany, Gali and Michelle for allowing me to behold the true meaning of life. You will continue to inspire me always.
You said it so well!
Thank you for being such an amazing friend!
