Vermont’s New Babies

Please join the Shambhala Times in welcoming these new additions to our community!

Introducing Amaia Luna, born to Pablo Coddou and Anne-Marie Keppel of Craftsbury, Vermont. The family shares this: “A small angel arrived brilliantly in our home on summer solstice day, as the sun was low in the sky, and clouds played delicate songs with the wind. Amaia Luna presently enjoys the sound of singing birds, resting in her father’s lap during practice and falling asleep while drowning out the phenomenal world at the sweetness of her mama’s breast. Proud, humble, and delighted out of our minds, we are now resting in bliss. May all families enjoy the opportunity to experience such love!”

Introducing Roxanna Eden Haynes Slayton (Roxanna Eden means Dawn Delight), born to Rachel Haynes Coombs and Jeffrey Slayton of Norwich, Vermont. The family shares this: Born at 3:18 am on Sunday, July 19th, the birth was fast and beautiful. Rachel sang/moaned/breathed Roxanna Eden into this realm of air. The moment before the final push an incredible silence suddenly permeated the room, and then she was born. Mama and baby are home and doing very well. Roxanna’s tribe of siblings are excited and curious about her, as is her father. Please join our family in this celebration that is as old as human history.”
