Thankful for Baby Number 8.

So thankful!!!!

1. That the roly poliest baby kept on kicking throughout labor.
2. That humor goes a long way in labor.
3. All the beautiful… And some humorous songs He gave me to cope with the intensity of a condensed labor.
4. Having friends in the living room watching my kids… And having them all come up and visit after I gave birth… True community!
5. That I can do nearly anything for an hour and a half… Including nonstop labor without spaces between contractions… Although I am pretty sure 1.5 hours is my tolerance limit!
6. Friends who come with lunch and flowers to hang out with for a nice visit.
7. A really spiritually available newborn.
8. When a day of my climbing fever goes away with prayer alone.
9. Cabbage leaves… The bigger the better.
10. A crew of attentive love filled brothers and sisters.
11. Jars of iced tulsi tea.
12. An amazing husBen who can make meals for days for our tribe.
13. The shining sun for helping rid her of jaundice.
14. A tribe of previously jaundiced babies who gather around her and pray for healing.
