Cinco de Mayo and the Benjamin Blessing

This little one was very comfortable in the womb. He was supposed to be born on his dad's birthday in April, but waited until Cinco de Mayo.

I was honored to be at this birth. Mom and Dad worked very hard, using breathing techniques, music, chanting and movement to achieve the birth they envisioned and it paid off. A natural birth, in hospital, with no medical interventions. A great triumph!
