december baby

..


On December 2nd, the first Sunday of this Advent season, our own little child of light was born to us.

And she is a girl! Elsa Willow. Born at home. Happy and healthy, all 5 and half pounds of her.

(No photos to share yet. And not much computer access for us. But hopefully I will be able to return and share more, soon-ish...)

So here we are, watching this beautiful white and wintery world outside our windows, watching this sweet and perfect little one sleeping in my arms, or dancing her new big brown eyes around the room...

We are all well, as I hope you and your families are too.
I hope everyone has been enjoying Advent days full of peace and joy.
Happy Solstice, Christmas, and Winter Holidays to all!

Love, Renee

I only just found your blog today. Congratulations to your family on the new wee arrival. Our first will be arriving in April. I will be back often to see how you incorporate Waldorf into these early years. Take care and best wishes.
