what an incredible experience i has this past tuesday! on 4.6.10, i was able to witness little benjamin cole goodman make his way into the world! it was a home birth and was attended by 2009 midwife of the year, bj snell {she’s my midwife too}. the process was so beautiful and peaceful! and brooke did such an amazing job! she was so centered and calm. although i have seen many births during my nurse’s training, i think this was my first natural birth, and definitely my first home birth! there seemed to be such comfort and ease in being at home. even big brother jonathan and big sister kate got to see their little brother’s arrival. what a moment! i feel honored to have been given the opportunity to capture some of the beauty of benjamin’s birth day! congrats, goodmans!
welcome baby benjamin!

Oh my goodness, Lins. I started looking through your pictures and totally got tears in my eyes once I got to the one where the baby finally came. Wow, did you ever tell story.
Those are so great! That little girl’s gentle touch is just the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen! I could almost feel it.
