Hurray for dad! But I have to admitt that I am more than a little irritated by the press's headline! It wasn't a "planned home birth" and if you just read the headline and the highlights they are making it sound like it was a planned home birth gone bad.
that's what i first thought when i read it too. i was suprised they didn't say
Ore. dad saves newborn after unexpected home birth
or
Ore. dad saves newborn after dangerous birth

What a cute story :) Did you see the related headline in the middle of the story about the dog following the toddler out on the roof? That is cute too!
