Well, I have to document this amazing birth and this seemed like the best place to do it. On Christmas Day 2008 I attended my first Twin-Homebirth. It was a joyous birth, a boy and a girl, both perfect as can be. The girl arrived almost an hour after the boy. I am so grateful to the family for allowing me to be a part of this special birth. I am so proud of them for their dedication to homebirth and their unshakable belief that birth is normal and natural! I have chosen to keep this family's identity unkown to protect their privacy. Thanks to all who supported this birth! Here I am with the little ones at about 6 weeks. What an incredible Christmas gift. This was the closest I have felt in a long time to the true meaning of Christmas. New life, new experience, great faith in the miracle of life and great faith in the strength and ability of woman.
