Christmas Day 2015 Late Afternoon

Amy, Chloe and Jasmin (Daena's cousins Nadia's sister's 
and Nadia's brother's children) and Daena.


Ethan is always so good with the little ones.
He is with Jessie (Colleen's son).


Nadia's brother, Lowell, and fourth child. 


Nadia's sister, Kayla, and Gran, Marian, and Mom Erene.


Two of the about ten or twelve missionaries who joined us late in the afternoon.


We were back all together at about five thirty for dessert.
Les, Doug, Jarom, Colleen, Richard, Andrew.


Jarom, Andrew, Richard.


Colleen, Rohan.


Richard, Dom's Dad Lawrence,  and the others you know now.


Gorgeous cloudy late afternoon.

Early evening swimmers.


The birthday candle after burning for twelve hours.



And at about ten thirty Dom and Cindy's baby girl was born...

This morning I heard more of the details
from Sally (Doctor and Cindy's Mom) of Scarlett's long delivery.
I felt concerned.

This afternoon Ron and Pamela (Midwife) visited.
Pamela went straight from arriving at the airport to the Birthing Facility
and has given even more perspective.

Dom and Cindy have just visited too.
Scarlett is still in high care,
it seems they expect her to come home tomorrow or the day after.

I look forward to meeting her.
What a special privilege to be around a newborn.
