Before I could arrive, with sunrise still near,
A new soul was ready — her time was clear.
With breath and bravery, labor found its flow,
And love filled the room with a warm, steady glow.

On the other end of the line, I spoke calm and true,
While Grandma stepped in — as strong women do.
With steady hands and a heart full of grace,
She caught her granddaughter in that sacred space.

A birth not rushed, not led by fear,
Just wisdom and trust, and those held dear.
Three generations, one story begun —
A circle of women welcoming one.

Please join us in prayer for Christy and her family. She lost her husband this week to a battle with ALS for the past 3 years. 💔😔

Three weeks early, eager to appear,
This little one raced to end the year.
Before the clock could count the hour,
He entered the world with quiet power.
Five days shy of the year’s new start,
He made his mark and stole our hearts.

🍂✨ A golden leaf fell early this morn,
Three weeks before her time was born.
She drifted down with the autumn breeze,
A gentle soul, set the world at ease.

The harvest moon whispered soft and bright,
As she arrived in the amber light.
Like the leaves that dance from the tallest tree,
She found her place, where she’s meant to be.

Welcome, little one, our autumn delight,
You’ve filled our hearts with warmth and light. 🍁🌙

We got behind on birth announcements & social media posts 🤪 So I figured we should just START AGAIN & what better way than by introducing my first grand child! He was born in February 😅! His mama had lots of prodromal labor and once she kicked into active labor she progressed super quickly! I didn’t get to catch him because I stepped out of the room to take a breath & set up the delivery room (we didn’t have time to get to the birth suite ). What a privilege & honor to be Heidi & Jefferson’s midwife 🥰. I’ve always said I was born to be a grandma and I absolutely love it! I love you Jasper 🤗🩵

I love harvesting these little guys. The Scarlet Elf Cup. In traditional medicine, elf cups were placed on the navels of newborns to promote healing! Folklore says that fairies & elves drank morning dew from the cups or its where they bathed. 🍄🌱🍄‍🟫 They grow in very cool, shady conditions, usually on fallen wood. Yes they are edible (I plan to dry mine & use them in a pasta dish). Not to be confused with the ruby elf cup (only identifying difference are the tiny hairs visible by a microscope on the ruby ones). 🌱🍄
