Another amazing photo! Thank you for sharing it with us.
Elizabeth
Wow! Powerful and tender!
This photo will be treasured forever. I'm the first generation-so elated for my girl and her daughter. My mother was watching, and so was hers.
Barbara and her team were wonderful.
Oooh, look at that molding!
Oh, Candice! Thanks so much for the very kind words.
YOU were a delight! I loved spending time with you that day of labor - thank goodness your baby girl called you to come down!
I'm glad I can offer the photos as a reminder of the wonderful day we shared together.
Thank you for bringing such a wonderful daughter into the world.
And welcome to grandmother-hood!
*loving hugs*
This is stunning - the sheer joy on the birthing mother's face next to the incredible joy and pride on the face of her mother is so clear. Completely excellent photo!
