Congratulations to the Kehewin family and to Melissa Cardinal-Grant, Midwife extraordinaire, who is truly dedicated to empowering families and bringing birth back to the land.s

With deep love and gratitude, we welcome baby boy- Clover Benson Kehewin
born on August 14, 2025 on the land that carries our ancestors in Kehewin Cree Nation,
surrounded by his family, elders, birth support workers, and the gentle hands of our midwife, Melissa Cardinal-Grant. 🫶🏼

He entered this world to the soft sound of our Cree language,
his first moments wrapped in smudge,
bathed in love, ceremony, and song.
A baby welcoming song was sung,
a prayer carried by those who waited for him,
with hearts wide open and spirits strong.

He came into being under open skies,
held by the land, lifted by tradition, and embraced by wahkohtowin. ❤️

Already, he is teaching us about love, patience, and the power of healthy beginnings.

We are humbled, grateful, and so deeply in love with this beautiful birth work, we continue to pray in ceremony that we are guided by the kokoms and that we continue to have our baby’s born on the land. 🦅
