dear son...

 no moment has ever been

so magical for me

than seeing you 

for the first time

after nine months' journey


when we look at

your tiny limbs

your sleepy eyes

your full cheeks &

your innocent smiles

we're eternally grateful, 

my love, to have you 

in our lives


I hope my womb 

& your dad's love

were warm & safe 

enough for you

because, my love, 

it's in a tough world 

you've come into


we want you to be  

independent, knowledgeable, 

fearless and boundless

we also want you to have a  

bit of our qualities, no less 😋

we want you to explore, 

succeed, fail, rise

and live your life to the fullest


life can be difficult and unforgiving

but always remember, my love,

no matter what we will always 

be by your side


We love you,

To the moon and back
