Sorry the post is a bit late today.

My god-daughter was born last night and this morning we learned that her GBS+ mom didn't have enough antibiotics, and there are concerns that the baby might have been infected.

We've been a bit occupied this morning . . .

Sending good wishes for baby and mom ... hopefully antibiotics will prevail.

Her middle name is Grace. She seems to be doing fine.

For an "Our Lady of Grace", the woman in that mural looks pretty sensual. Kinda hot, in fact.

I've heard the birth process can be traumatic.

Lovely little baby there! Hope she continues to do well.

and thanks, again, for doing this, CaliMama. I really appreciate all your efforts.

Baby saw the doctor yesterday and she is doing very well. We just have to hold our breath until Day 8. If she is symptom free then, she is free and clear.

About the mural, I agree it isn't the prettiest of faces. I wonder who they used for a model?

They modeled their art on the work of Alphonse Mucha who also doesn't use the prettiest of faces.
