    I commented over on flickr, but wanted to say congratulations again.

    And also wanted to say thank you for the tips you’ve shared here on your blog in past posts.

    I love Lucy’s name and the “born into daddy’s hands” part of the announcement along with that picture of you is just… perfect :)

    I’ve never posted before, but I came across your blog on a Google search for dreadlocks and became hooked.

    Many blessings to you and your family!

    Congrats!!
    I know that I am past the babies-of-my-own stage, and not in a hurry to do the grandma thing, but I sometimes have that lusting after babies feeling!! I won’t say it is a sin! …just a total appreciation for the gifts of GOD.

    I just took a look at the other photos and have to say that I have never seen photographs that capture such emotion at a birth. Your photographer is amazing. Enjoy your precious baby and congratulations!

    We are all so blessed!What a healthy girl! I just had my second boy in the water on May 1. Baby Ezra! I thought he was long at 22 inches (and 8 lbs 11 oz!) Don’t they still seem so tiny even though they are considered “big”? Congratulations! I hope you have lots of yummy milk soon! beautiful!
