Island sees first baby born in 34 years


    

On June 1st Eli Edward Hayes Heineman became the first baby born on South Bass Island in Ohio in 34 years. New father, Dustin Heineman told WKYC Channel 3, "Having a baby born on the island is, you know, not the normal thing to do since there's no hospitals nearby or anything like that.” But Eli’s Mom, Kira Hubner, grew up on South Bass Island located in Lake Erie and said, "My heart wants to be here on Put-In-Bay." Precautions were taken in the event of an emergency, but the two midwives that traveled at dawn by boat to Put-In-Bay delivered healthy baby Eli without issue. Kira recalled, "It was more than perfect. There was a beautiful rainbow the second he was born." The family has deep roots in Ohio. They own the Heineman Winery which is celebrating its 125th year and is the oldest family owned winery in Ohio. So little Eli, a 6th generation Heineman, will have a legacy to uphold and his father already has plans for his son place in with the winery saying, "He will learn it from the ground up, just like I have." The family business is likely to be in his blood. Kira said, “When he was in-utero, I was out in the vineyard picking grapes in the fall, and in the spring I was tying the vines. So hopefully, something, you know is flowing through his veins."

Please how have they been doing it before and there is plenty of such testimony in Nigeria what do you think?
Congratulation to the Heineman family.
