This weekend held more than we planned ✨
Rock the Universe had wrapped up, and we were looking forward to a slow morning — enjoying the resort, breakfast at CityWalk, and an easy drive home. Joey was even hoping to stop at Busch Gardens to ride Montu after deciding (post-Hulk!) that she’s officially not afraid of it anymore.
Then I got the call that changed everything: a dear friend was in labor.
Joey and I packed up quickly and headed home. I went straight from the hotel to my friend’s house, where Nina and Amy had been holding the space so beautifully through early labor. Together, we welcomed this sweet baby earthside 🤍
This birth was especially meaningful. It was the third baby I’ve caught for this family — the most I’ve ever attended for one client — and doing it for a friend made it even more sacred.
So grateful for flexibility, community, and the deep honor of being present when birth calls. Babies always know exactly when it’s time.
