.admiration.
after watching my friends, nicole and leila during the labor and delivery of their baby boys admiration is the word that constantly comes to mind. i've witnesses births before and have felt joy and love, but not like this. these women experienced something that is so foreign to me, even as a mom i am still amazed.
i was lucky enough to be at the door to hear nicole take her last breath and her last push and only seconds later to listen to baby hudson cry for the first time. then to hear proud daddy JR say, "it's a BOY". it was one of the most incredible experiences i've ever had...with no doubt!
i was actually with leila, her wonderful husband, her mother and mother-in-law in the delivery room when leila gave her strongest 4 pushes to bring baby frankie into this world! what an extremely memorable event to be apart of!
in both births I witnessed something you don't just see in every day life. i experienced PURE BLISS between two people and the little one they created, and the courage of these women was absolutely incredible! i understand the women have been doing this for years, but this was different. these past days i've shared with my friends, now moms and dads have forever changed my life...
thank you again for letting me share those most precious days.

I am glad you were there on Hudson's birthday! I wish I had known you were outside the door so you could have come inside!
