Our long-awaited new daughter, Maya, was born on March 5! In the end, I may have been a little too patient. I waited to call in reinforcements to be with the other kids until it was almost too late and we barely made it to the hospital. Which meant the worst of labor was in the car (not recommended!) and there was no time for an epidural (ditto!). But all's well that ends well - at 2:15 a.m. Maya joined us. And Holden is just glad he didn't have to do the delivering. Big brother Dylan and big sister Sophie absolutely adore her, although they could do without the crying (who couldn't?). I'll be on official maternity leave for a while which will hopefully be enough time to escape the sleepy haze that has descended upon me. We'll be in and out of St. Aidan's (with Holy Week and Easter coming, how could I stay away?) but are also looking forward to visiting some different churches along the way.
