My lastest crafting project: a human being
There are some folks here not on other social media like Facebook or Twitter that may not know - during Hannukah I gave birth to Rúben Manuel Cabral. In Hebrew, Reuven Emmanuel. We had a bris earlier this week. Everyone is healthy and well and healing, and I have paid maternity leave until the end of March.
Pic under the lj-cut 'cause that's how this works.
The first picture of our family:
Rúben's first card trick:
Rúben means "behold, a son" - fitting because we didn't know what sex he was going to be born as, and Emmanuel means "God is with us" - also fitting, because we feel a higher power, a sense of wonder at nature and the universe, with a baby around.
