    Sheer brilliance! – it is so not easy to take a ’sharable’ photo of that birth moment. I have pictures of my first son’s birth (and some of others too), but there is no way I could put them on the net! Fantastic :D I really hope someone will do this for you in few weeks time!!

    This brought tears to my eyes…not only for your sister, but in thinking about my moment like that almost 12 weeks ago…time is flying. And possibly never experiencing that again. There is absolutely nothing like it. Who will capture YOUR moment, Beth??

    Chris says:

    Awesome picture! There is no greater feeling in the world that compares to when they put that baby in your arms. Aren’t you excited to experience that again?

    Tracey says:

    I remember my 3 moments of joy like they were yesterday. Weren’t they yesterday? No? 10 years ago?

    Zakary says:

    I LOVE IT.

    I love your sister.

    I love her baby.

    And if you need me to take that picture for YOU in March, let me know. My job can be to just stay in the corner and click, click, click away.

    But knowing you, you will probably just set up a tripod and timer. :)
