Meghan

Yesterday was a big day around here. Meghan my daughter is here and she and I and Abong, a friend I have made here went touring around the area.

We went to temples, to a market and sat out a rainstorm drinking tea at a Warung, saw misty, foggy lakes, and walked down to a twin waterfall. 

We walked and talked and stopped by the side of the road for fruit, Meghan tried Durian and did not like it at all. 

I have pictures of our adventures that I will publish when I upload them to the computer. 

It is great to have her here sharing my adventure, and when I return home I will have someone to say, "remember" to.

It was also a great day for another reason. When we arrived back in our village, I went to check in with the clinic and to say hello to a mother whose labor I had attended the day before. She had a challenging labor and early postpartum. She was having a VBAC and really had to work hard to push her baby out. 

When I saw her she thanked me and gave me a big hug. I asked the babies name and she told me Made, which is a common name, and that she wanted to also name the baby callista and would I help to name the baby as well. Would I give the baby a name

So now there is a baby, Made Meghan Callista in Bali.

it was a great day
