So I didn't get to see the fullest and closest supermoon this past Sunday night. Instead, I stayed inside and felt her tremendous pull. :) Out came May, that late afternoon. She was born in our home. It was all so beyond everything.
The two weeks leading up to her birth were extra special, as our midwife Erika Beecher has been living with us. We explored some of the wonders of Cairo and I hope to write and share more about all of that. And especially more about Erika. Like a whole book about her, in the series that will tell the story of our life in Egypt. In the entire universe of birth, Erika is the sage. She is the salve. Like Sunday's moon, we have the fullest, closest, most super experience of life yet to thank her for. And my God, we love her forever.
Zillions of photos have been taken. We'll be so happy to share those with you as it all fits into our new way of life. In the meantime, here is some of the video footage we've gathered. It's all is my husband's secret late night, early morning doing. I am so over the moon in love with him and this girl.
Thank you everyone for checking in and sending love, prayers, meditations, and all else. You are in our hearts and on our minds always.
May is so amazingly beautiful and you both seem like the most natural, relaxed and loving parents. Thanks so much for sharing her with us and the world. Love to you all!
