looking down at your beautiful baby girl. she's more than everything you've ever imagined. she looks back up at you with colorless eyes, squinting because she's adjusting breathtaking light of this world. she opens her soft, pale lips, to let out her first real, controlled breath. you check the clock. 12:00 am sharp. a midnight baby. a miracle. sofia. cradling her softly in the safety and comfort of your arms, and singing to her gently. you want this moment to last forever. just you and her, against the world, in peace and harmony. she falls asleep.
as do you.
all is well.
