I Witnessed A Miracle Last Night







Last night I witnessed my friend Melinda have a beautiful baby girl, VIRGINIA GRACE. I was there to take pictures and video her birth. It was a miracle all the way around! First of all they did not know what the baby was. I thought for sure it was a boy by the way Melinda carried the baby, I think she did too. They had a boy named picked out and a lot of boy clothes ready, but surprise!


She had a home birth, it was actually very calm and much nicer then a hospital birth. (Unless you have babies 5 weeks earlier like I did and then you would end up there anyway.) Virginia Grace was a 10 lb. and 21 in. long baby ,so that itself is a miracle! I did my job and did not pass out this time! Last time I videoed a birth I was pregnant and as soon as the baby came out I passed out, because my sugar crashed.


Congratulations Dano and Melinda!! I am so privileged that you asked me to be a part of such a
miracle! The best part for me was getting to doll that baby girl up with a bow! Every Princess needs a bow, even if she is just minutes old! Ha!


I hope you enjoy all those pictures and video!
