Breathe

The split second edge

between birth and breath

moments seem eternity.

Cry little one life awaits,

fill your tiny lungs.

The picture above is from a c-section delivery I photographed yesterday. The moment between when the baby reaches the air, takes a first breath and cries seems endless.

It’s impossible not to pray when waiting for a delivery. . .
