This was right in the middle of crowning! Tommy lifted his camera and snapped this one. This was by far the hardest "labor" I've ever had and I was literally sweating buckets... I had stopped to take a breath between contractions. Wasn't it just evil of him to do that? Right after he snapped it, I smiled and said, "You're a funny man..." The nurse and midwife got a big laugh out of that; I still had a sense of humor. ::snort:: Enjoy! Laugh away!

well, yeah, I think you're very beautiful. Even with ran makeup and sweat and "everywhere" hair. Maybe it's that we know you were in the midst of the most beautiful thing God allows us, as women, to do, that makes you the more beautiful.
