No music at all? Even quiet beautiful stuff? We are a very musical family and the baby is already getting lots of music in the womb. Really? No music at all? Even quiet beautiful stuff?

Who isn't? Thank heaven the sun always comes up and shadows disperse. Kids forgive us instantly. After trying unsuccessfully to talk my daughter out of her fears I realized they were real, and perfectly realistic. When I quit trying to take them away, she can let them go by herself, and find new ones! “I have confessed before, and clearly I need more work because my shortcoming remain: I am a better mother in the light.” Who isn’t?

Many friends & family were eager to meet the little guy since visitations were not permitted during SARS. I knew then that next time would be different. We are planning a home birth with our second child in just a few short weeks and lying-in is just what we'll need to connect and stay grounded as a family.

Lying-in sounds like a beautiful transition for mother and baby. I think I will use the practice when my little one comes next month. Thank you for sharing your beautiful experience.

You brought back all my memories of my Mother's high heels on the hard wood floors and how much I loved that sound. I believe that Kate and Michael will be blessed with the happy memories (the pictures you have painted are just wonderful). What will be interesting will be to ask them what they are in 20 years and see what the little pieces that they took with them are. I love this.
