Labor

Charlie's wife went into labor in the middle of the night, and the midwife was called out to assist in the delivery.
 
Since there was no electricity, the midwife handed the father-to-be a lantern and said, "Here. You hold this high so I can see what I am doing."
 
Soon, a baby boy was brought into the world.
   
 
Whoa there, said the midwife, "Don't be in such a rush to put that lantern down. I think there's another one coming."
 
 

Sure enough, within minutes she had delivered a baby girl.






"Hold that lantern up, don't set it down there's another one!" said the midwife.
 

Within a few minutes she had delivered a third baby. 

 

"No, don't be in a hurry to put down that lantern, it seems there's yet another one coming!" Said the midwife.
 
 
Charlie scratched his head in bewilderment, and asked the midwife, "Do you think it might be the light that's attracting them?"
