Creation

Creation.

In darkness you begin, and slowly you form, little fingers and little toes, every day you grow.

From a small moment to a big event in a matter of seconds, you become life, heartbeats and kicks galore, little one you make yourself known more and more.

Loving you before we know you, letting you know we're there, to help you understand we're near and we care.

Until that final hour we wait for you with impatient breath, until you come into the world: we count the time that's left.
