Five Weeks Old

five weeks old
you're in there: tiny, yet full of soul
miniscule, yet full of life
you're dividing cells
growing by the second
expanding and contracting
as the need for your development arises.
i can't wait to see your face.
i can't wait to see your eyes.
touch your hands.
touch your feet.
see you in all your perfection!
i am ecstatic at your living.
choosing me as mother.
choosing him as father.
what could be more beautiful, more miraculous than this?
the infinite well of unconditional love i feel for you.
my 
little
sweet
spot
i 
adore 
you.
you make me so full and fat - 
but in a divine sense of elation
at the miracle that is
you
taking place.
