Lightning strikes pregnant mother, brings on birth of baby girl

A PREGNANT New Mexico woman has survived a bolt from the blue to give birth to a bouncing baby girl.
Authorities say Kendra Villanueva and the baby's father Ian Gordon were watching fireworks with friends on July 4 when lightning struck both of them in the front yard of an Albuquerque home.
“We were actually going inside because we heard the lightning and the thunder,” .
"The next thing we know, we woke up on the ground and everybody was just trying to keep us calm.”
 Mother, father and baby survived relatively unscathed.
The couple named the baby Kimberly Samantha Rose Gordon and said they'll also call her "little Flash Gordon."
Ian Gordon says the new parents are hoping their new daughter will "run fast, or save the universe."
