A quick update: he has arrived! Our son was born in our home early this morning after an intense and amazing whirlwind labor. Each time I look down and marvel at my boy, with his puffy eyes and dark pink skin and teeny little hands and feet, I sense my heart growing larger with adoration and gratitude. I can't believe he has only been with us for less than one day. He has carried so much strength and love with him into this world. Thank you to all who have sent support our way. I will soon put his birth experience into words, but for now we rest, a family of four.
