🌸Introducing Eloise Grace 🌸
The day after Thanksgiving, in warm mid-afternoon light, ☀️
Eloise Grace arrived—eight perfect pounds, a quick, gentle flight.
Surrounded by her husband, her doula, and her mother’s steady care, 💕
She entered through the water’s calm, into a room of love laid bare. 🌊
In that soft and sacred moment, gratitude lingered in the air,
As Eloise was lifted close, tiny breath and tender hair. 🌬️
A mother born, a family grown, a world forever changed that day—
All in the quiet, wondrous rise of Eloise Grace’s very first way. 💖

November was full of sweet new beginnings 🌾✨
We welcomed 5 beautiful babies into the world this month —
1 boy and 4 girls, with 2 first-time mamas in the mix.
No VBACs this month, just five unique stories and five families forever changed.
Every birth is a blessing, and we’re grateful for each one we’re invited into. ❤️
Here’s to another month of strength, grace, and God’s goodness in every arrival. 🙏

🌹A Welcome to Rose Hildegard🌹
In the stillness of a cold morning,❄️
before the sun had time to rise,
labor flowed like a rushing wind— 🌬️
swift, certain, and undeniably wise.

With steady hands and hearts prepared,
love paved the way for little Rose. 🌹✨
Big sister entered as the world shifted,
embracing the love that forever grows.❤️

Welcome, sweet Rose Hildegard— 🌹
a winter-kissed blossom,
woven into the story God is writing. 🙏

🌿A Welcome to Eleanor Fern🌿

In the hush before dawn,
the earth drew a breath—🌬️
a soft wind through branches,
a promise kept.
The midwife's hands like steady rain, 💧
guiding, knowing when to rest—
and then, with one bright rush, 💫
she came.
The forest hums her welcome,
the river hums her name.
Eleanor Fern—🌿
child of gentle passage,
born in grace,
and held in love. 💖

This sweet mama was so ready for her Home visit! Supplies were gathered & organized, her space cozy, and even her two curious cats wanted to be part of the fun 🐱✨
During birth, they’ll have their own little space to explore while she labors.
Every home birth is uniquely tailored to each family — from the supplies to the support (and sometimes, the pets!). 🐈‍⬛🐱

Welcome, sweet Kollyns! ✨🌿

In the hush of midnight, as thunder danced near, ⛈️
A miracle arrived, our hearts now full of cheer.
With three spirited brothers, ready to play,
Kollyns, our autumn treasure, you brighten our day! 💖🍂

In the calm of the night, a swift, tender start, 🌟
Mom on her knees, love warmed every heart.
Dad stood by ready, with pride shining bright,
You entered this world, a moment so right. 🌙✨

Welcome to our family, little Kollyns, so sweet, 💖
With open arms, we gather to greet.
Your laughter will echo, your spirit will soar,
In our loving nest, you are adored more and more. 🪹💞

A skeletonized leaf is to nature what childbirth is to humanity: both symbolize the beauty of transformation and the essence of life. Just as the veins of a leaf tell the story of its journey, the memories created during childbirth remain with parents forever. Both processes highlight resilience and the connections that bind us to God and each other. Embrace the beauty in these lasting beginnings. 🍃✨
