Photography Friday- Children at Birth

I love these two photos.  They show how children can be involved in a birth- even in unexpected ways!  I love birth and I love when families celebrate it for what it is and don't just fear it for what it can be.  That joy colors generations in their opinions and their approach to parenthood.

Enjoy!

Waiting!

The placenta!  Which is both amazing and, well, kind of gross!
