Childbirth in the age of Covid means we are scattered about the region and the country, sharing the news with middle-of-the-night texts, sending hearts and flowers and congratulations notes, waking and cheering and giving thanks and falling back to sleep (or trying to) with images of infants in our heads.
Suzanne was a sweet big sister right from the start, as she demonstrates here, in one of the first photos I have of her holding Claire.
Now she's holding a baby of her own, long awaited, cherished and treasured by many. I hope mom, dad and baby feel the love we're sending their way. I bet they do!
