Week by week, my body became a sanctuary. Each sunrise marked a quiet expansion not just of my belly, but of my trust, my patience, my surrender. Pregnancy asked me to slow down, to listen, to soften into the wisdom of this body that knows how to create life.
This journey was not linear. It held tenderness and discomfort, fear and awe, deep stillness and wild strength. I witnessed myself change with every passing week. My womb becoming a home. My breath becoming an anchor. My heart stretching wider than I knew possible.
As I welcome Koa into my life, I am deeply grateful to this body for carrying us here. For every growth, every ache, every sacred signal that guided us toward birth.
To the souls who walked beside me through this becoming, thank you. Your prayers, presence, words, and quiet check-ins held me when I needed reminding that I was not alone.
And to Zach, my beloved, thank you for being my steady ground and gentle strength. For holding space through every phase, every doubt, every breath. Your love was a constant reminder that we were building this life together.
This was a season of becoming. Welcome, Koa.
