A day with Jeremy

       Every thing about this birth has been perfect.  The location, the staff, midwife, labor.  Perfect.  Look at the view from our room.  Beautiful.  Lucky me, I got to wake up to our baby and this sunrise each morning we were there.  Behind the trees were the mountains of Mauna Kea. We were given the choice to walk Jeremy around outside and give him some sun after he'd been born.  Nice.  

Shout out to Jesse.  He's come a long way.  Guess what he did?  He cut. the. cord.  So proud.  Not sure if I was happier to have had the baby or that my husband had grown so much since our first birthing experience.  He stuck with me the whole way thru.  Guts of STEEL he had that evening. Flashbacks to the moment of Leva's birth where he got sick and my nurses left me alone on that delivery bed with my OB, to tend to his weak stomach.  GET HIM JUICE & CRACKERS! They said... It was a moment of many firsts for this Markovitz family on Thanksgiving day.  A very happy day indeed.
