Tout petit, mais là.

What more is there to say than that? Very small, but there. Very small, but perfectly sized with a tiny little perfectly beating heart.

We are so relieved, so grateful, and so touched ... not only by what appeared on the screen but also by all of your thoughts and wishes that it would. Thank you, friends.

(PS: Pictures are here, if you'd like to see.)
