Nurses mustered, monitoring
Mom reclined, suffering
Dad present, attending
Mothers involved, advising
Fathers nearby, praying
Bloodline assembled, hoping
Autumn blessing, imminent
9 months, anticipating
27 hours, excruciating
Pushing, contracting, maneuvering
Visible crown, wooly
Immense pain, selfless sacrifice
“Push, Lace! You got this!”
Autumn blessing, emerged
Blue tint, massaging
Heartbeat? needs oxygen
Mothers unsure, weeping
Nurses purposeful, scrambling
Mom depleted, thankful
Baby swollen, acclimating, brand new world
Autumn blessing, alive
8 pounds, 4 ounces, pure joy
Reddish hue, dimpled chin, long fingers
Nurse, sleep, cry, endless cycle
Precious in every way
Answered prayer
God’s special gift
Autumn blessing, Baby Bradford
