This is where it all began...
In early labor on the day you were born.
Transformed
We were still attached
Your first breath, my first look in your eyes.
Your first kiss.
Melting.
Spectacular.
We thought we loved you as much as we could then, but our hearts are bursting more every day of your life.
Swollen, puffy, tired. Quiet alert.
Proud.

Oh Hazel! Oh Amanda! I never imagined life could be so good. Never.
What a beautiful picture sequence. Proud is perfect.
And on a "p" effort I'd add powerful and perfect.
Here's to being able to bring to life.
Hazel will be able to read the most amazing baby book ever, filled with love, hope and heart.
I feel like such an intruder, to comment on such a beautiful and personal piece, but again, am so compelled to tell you how beautiful your writing-no-your story, and your family is. Happiest Birthday Hazel! I hope your eastern Spring is as beautiful as you are!
