A Stargazer is Born

May 23, 2006

My friend Joy and her husband Ian are proud parents of Benjamin Logan. Born c-section at 10:11am in Pittsburgh two days ago. Ben just wouldn't turn his head down in time for the birth ~ instead his head stayed lodged under mom's rib with his eyes staring up toward the stars. A "stargazer" as Joy aptly put it. I don't know about you, but I think I can see the galaxy in those eyes.

I'm so happy for them! Joy and her bundle of Benjamin will be home on Thursday ~ congrats~!

What a beautiful baby... and what a lovely sentiment.

Stargazer indeed. Such a beautiful way to phrase the rather ugly term of "breech."

Congrats to your friend Joy and her family!

Congratulations to Joy, Ian and Ben. He is a handsome fellow and yes, stars in his eyes and yours. He'll follow his star for sure.
