Whoa, Mama!

Let’s hear it for my friend Jenny. I have to brag on her a little.


(This is us at 33 and 29 weeks, respectively (I think). Aren’t we a pair??)

On Monday she gave birth to a healthy baby boy, and she did it all without an epidural! She is so stinking cool, and she doesn’t even know it. Seriously, I didn’t think it was possible for me to admire her more than I already do, but apparently it is. She handled the whole birth in typical Jenny fashion: she is so smart and capable and determined and talented, but she has no idea how awesome she is, so the fact that she kicked butt was a surprise only to her.

And Mr. Samuel Thomas Hunt entered the world at a healthy 7 pounds, 10 ounces, and measuring 20 and a half inches long.

Praise God for answered prayers: a healthy baby and a healthy mom.

I’m so proud of you, Jenny, and I’m so happy for you. I can’t wait to meet your new son (you have a son!!!!). Give him lots of hugs and kisses until I do, okay?

Love you!
