First Night Apart

Last night was my first night away from Marlee...not necessarily by choice. I got a call at 6pm that a client's water had broken. By midnight, she was ready for me to come to her house to help her labor. After a very long night, her little boy was born just before noon today. I knew it would happen eventually...I've been really lucky with labor timing so far. Still, it was a little sad to know that MJ was waking up without me. :( I guess there's a first time for everything.

On a related note, I am really really tired.

What a wonderful job to be able to be a part of so many special moments! Was it a home birth?
