China Caboose: Belly button!!

Belly button!!

I love Presley's funny little belly button. It kinda sticks out like a little nose or something. I wonder who cut her umbilical cord...her birth father, a midwife? And what were they thinking? Presley had just been born with a noticeable cleft lip. I imagine there were many tears as they snipped the lifeline between their beautiful baby girl and her birth mother. She will probably hate her belly button someday, but I will always love it.
