. . . Grandfather.
My daughter, Megan, and her husband, Josh, welcomed their first child, Jude, who as born at home on September 28 at 5:36 PST. 
My wife, Sarah, a Certified Nurse Midwife, was midwife to Megan and Josh and Jude. She has been back in Eugene, Oregon, since September 9 to support Megan and Josh and now Jude. I will be leaving on October 16 to go meet him and spend time with the new family. The way Sarah describes Jude, I do believe my wife is falling for a much younger man.
Megan grew up as the daughter of a midwife and had always said that when she had a baby, she wanted Sarah there. And so it came to pass. Sarah said it was a beautiful birth and his parents are already doting on him.
If you saw me checking (and rechecking) my text messages on Wednesday, it was because I was getting pretty regular updates.
It is good to be home. And Jude, welcome to the world.
Beautiful – Congrats!
Wow, that’s really beautiful. A grandmother helping her daughter bring her new son into the world. Congratulations and thank you for sharing this,
